If I ran 2/25 of a mile in 30 seconds how long would it take me to run 1 mile?

Well to find this answer, we will have to find out how many pairs of 30 seconds there are in an hour. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, and there are 30 seconds in a minute, we can conclude that there are 120 pairs of 30 seconds in an hour. So our equation would be 2/25 × 120. So our answer would be that you could run 9 and 3/5 of a mile in one hour. hope I helped!

you should get 375 seconds which is 6 1/4 of a minute or 6 minutes and 15 seconds
