Answer:

Hello! The answer is 1050 calories.

Explanation:

To calculate this, you have to find how many calories are used PER mile. To do this, you have to divide the total calories by the mileage:

315 ÷ 3 = 105

Now that you have the calories used per mile, you can find how many calories are used in a 10 mile jog:

105 × 10 = 1050 calories
