Question

Asafa runs 0.75 kilometers in 6 minutes. Jemaine runs 3,000 meters in half an hour. Who ran at a faster rate?

Answer 1

• Asafa ran at a faster rate

Explanation:

Asafa's speed:

• 0.75 km/ 6 min = 750 m/ 6 min = 125 m/min

Jemaine's speed:

• 3000 m / 30 min = 100 m/min

Asafa ran at faster rate as 125 m/min > 100 m/min
