Answer 1

6.75m

Explanation:

We know that she jogged for 45 minutes and was going around 0.15m/min so we can multiply her distance per minute (0.15m/min), by the number of minutes(45min).

If we use Long Multiplication also known as Standard Algorithm it should look like this:

We have to multiply 0.15 x 100 or move the decimal two spaces

Once you get your answer (675) just move the decimal 2 spaces forward or divide by 100. You should get 6.75, and now just add your label (m)

6.75m.

Answer 2

6.75 m

Explanation:

Time = 45 mins

Speed = 0.15 m/min

Distance = Speed * time

Distance = 0.15 m/min * 45 mins = 6.75 m
