Question

Christine runs 10 miles in 75 minutes. at the same rate, how many miles would she run in 69 minutes

Answer 1

Christine ran 9.2 (9 and 1/5) miles in 69 minutes.

Explanation:

First, you should set up an equation:

`(10)/(75 ) = (x)/(69)`

Since we are looking for x, we should multiply 10 by 69:

`10(69) = 690`

Next, you should take 690, and divide it by 75:

`(690)/(75) = 9.2`

You should then get your answer of 9.2 miles.
