Question

Moly runs 2/3 of a mile in 8 minutes. Lin runs 2 3/4 miles in 2/5 of and hour

How far can Moly run in one hour?

Answer 1

5 miles

Explanation:

distance / time = distance / time

2/3 ÷ 8/1 = d / 60

`(2)/(3)` ·
`(1)/(8)` =
`(d)/(60)`

`(1)/(12)` =
`(d)/(60)`

12d = 60

d = 60/12

d = 5
