If traveling on a bicycle at 20mph for 12 miles what is the total time spent

traveling, and what is the proper formula used to compute this?

The proper formula is

TIME = DISTANCE/RATE 

or

T = D/R

Substitute 12 miles for the distance D and 20mph for the rate R.

You should get T = 3/5 of an hour, or 36 minutes.
