Part 1
Every morning Jim runs for 20 minutes. If he runs 6 miles per​ hour, how far does ​travel?

Answer 1

Answer: 2 miles

Explanation:

First convert the minutes to hours. One hour has 60 minutes. This means that 20 minutes is 20/60 of an hour. 20/60 = 2/6 = 1/3

The equation for distance is speed * time.

6mph * 1/3hours = 2 miles
