Question

Rachel runs 7 miles in 80 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she run in 64 minutes?

Answer 1

`\huge\boxed{\sf 5.6 \ miles}`

Explanation:

Given that,

Rachel runs 7 miles in 80 minutes.

80 minutes = 7 miles

Using unitary method

Divide 80 to both sides

1 minute = 7/80 miles

1 minute = 0.0875 miles

Multiply 64 to both sides

64 minutes = 0.0875 × 64 miles

64 minutes = 5.6 miles

So, Rachel will run 5.6 miles in 64 minutes.

`\rule[225]{225}{2}`
