Explanation:

It is given that, Antonio can run a mile in 6.5 minutes. We need to find for how many minutes will it take him to run 4.25 miles. It can be calculated using unitary method.

1 mile = 6.5 minutes

Let t is the time taken by Antonio to run 4.25 miles.


4.25\ miles=6.5* 4.25=27.62\ minutes

So, 27.62 minutes is taken by Antonio to cover 4.25 miles. Hence, this is the required solution.
