Question

Leo is running a 5% mile race. It took him 2 minutes to run the first mile of the race. If Leo continues running at the

same pace, how many more minutes will it take him to finish the race?

Answer 1

8 minutes

Explanation:

Leo has already run 1 mile, leaving him with 4 more to finish the race. At 2 minutes a mile (a ridiculously impressive pace, considering the world record mile time is just a little under 3:45), it will then take him 4 x 2 = 8 minutes to cross the finish line.
