Cindy runs 2 kilometers every morning. She takes 2 minutes for the first 250 meters, 4 minutes for the next 1,000 meters, 1 minute for the next 350 meters, and 3 minutes for the rest.

Cindy’s average speed for the entire run is
meters per minute. One kilometer is the same as 1,000 meters.

The answer should be 500 meters every 2.5 minutes :

__________________

To solve for this equation:

1) Take all her times and add them up

2) Take her meters and add them: (2+4+1+3 = 10)

3) For meters add: (250+1,000+350+ 400 = 2,000)

4) Divide all of these numbers by the amount in each: (four)

Answer: 500 every 2.5 mins

Answer:

I think the answer is is 500 meters every 2.5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve for this equation you have to take all her times and add them up, and then take her meters and add them. It looks like this: 2+4+1+3 = 10, and then for meters add 250+1,000+350+ 400 = 2,000. Divide all of these numbers by the amount in each or four (because there are four different amounts for meters and time each). So your answer should be 500 every 2.5minutes.

I hope this helps!
