Question

Sally takes 40 minutes to go 5 miles. At the same rate, how many miles can she go in 100 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer: 12.5

Step-by-step explanation: If you divide 100 by 40 it will give you 2.5

Multiply 5 by 2.5 and you get 12.5

Answer 2

12.5 miles

Explanation:

multiply 5 by 2 which equals 10 then its not a full amount for the final 20 minutes so you have to find half of 5 which is 2.5. Add 5+5+2.5 which is 12.5.
