Amy Is training for a half marathon. In practice, she runs 2 miles in 15 minutes. If she continues at the same rate, how many miles will she run in 1 hour ? Please answer! ❤️️❤️️

since an hour is 60 minutes, divide 60 by 15, you get 4. since she runs 2 miles in 15 minutes, and there are four 15 minutes in 60,
2 * 4 = 8.
she will run 8 miles in a hour.

8 miles because 2 miles over 15 min = x over 60 so you get x by multiplying 60 and 2 which is 120 , divide that from 15 which x and you will get 8 miles



thank you
