Question

Yoko runs 6 miles in 55 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she run in 44 minutes?

Answer 1

Yoko would run 4.8 (or 4 4/5) miles in 44 minutes. To answer this, you would take 6 and divide it by 55. This is your unit rate. Then take your unit rate and multiply it by 44. Or the equation: (6÷55)*44= 4.8
