Answer:

D 588 miles

Explanation:

We know

Leo is training for a marathon later this summer. He has run 42 miles over the last 3 days.

42 divided by 3 = 14 miles per day

So, he runs at a rate of 14 miles per day.

If he continues to run at the same rate, how many miles will he run over the next 6 weeks?

1 week = 7 days

1 week = 14 x 7 = 98 miles

6 weeks = 98 x 6 = 588 miles

So, he will run 588 miles over the next 6 weeks.
