If Dad catches him in 15 minutes, then he will have traveled another 15 minutes at 8 miles per hour.  Since 15 minutes is one-quarter hour, he will have gone another 8 divided by 4 = 2 miles.  The 8 miles the boy traveled in the first hour plus the 2 miles he traveled in the following 15 minutes makes a total of 10 miles -- and that is the distance Dad has to travel in that 15 minutes.  10 miles per 15 minutes times 4/4 = 40 miles per 60 minutes = 40 miles per hour.\r<BR>\n" );
