Leila and Maria were at track tryouts. The track is 3/5 Kilometers around.

-Leila ran 3 laps in 7 minutes
-Maria ran 1 lap in 3 minutes
Who is the better runner? What advice would you give the coach to convince her? include evidence and show your work
An explanation would be great but if not, thats fines

7/3= 2.3 that means Leila ran 1 lap in 2.3 minutes which is faster than Maria’s time which is 3 minutes. Hope this helps!
