Question

Because of knee problems, Kelly has been warned not to jog more than 15 miles a week. If she jogs three times a week, what is the greatest number of miles she can jog each time without exceeding her weekly limit?

Answer 1

She can jog five miles per day

Explanation:

If Kelly is limited to jog only 15 miles a week.

And if she jogs three times a week

We could divide the limit of jog miles to how many times she jogged a week

Limit of jogging / How many times she jogged a week

15/3 = 5

She can jog five miles per day

Answer 2

She can jog 5 miles 3 day a week and jog exactly 15 miles since 5x3=15
