Question

Ivanna runs 7 miles in 50 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she run in 75 minutes

Answer 1

10.5 miles.

You make a conversion factor that can convert 75 minutes into miles with the current pace.

75 minutes (7miles / 50minutes)

Minutes cancels our due to cross multiplying and when you do 75 x 7 divided by 50, you get 10.5 miles.

Answer 2

10.5 miles.

explanation: half of 7 is 3.5 so add that to 7 and boom.
