Answer:

A C D

Explanation:

Relay races are 1 person at a time so if they run equally they will run 1/6 the race and since it’s 5 miles we multiply by 5 to show the percentage of how many miles each person run which was 5/6

A,\text{ B and C}

Explanation

Step 1

we need to find the rate ( the number of miles per child)

the rate would be


\begin{gathered} \text{rate}=\frac{\text{ number of miles}}{\text{ Number of}\chi ldren} \\ \text{rate}=\frac{5\text{ miles}}{6\text{ chle}} \\ \text{rate}=(5)/(6)\text{ miles per Child } \end{gathered}

therefore


\begin{gathered} (5)/(6)\rightarrow(1)/(6)\cdot5 \\ (5)/(6)\rightarrow5\text{ divide by 6} \\ (5)/(6)\rightarrow(5)/(6) \end{gathered}

so, the answers are


A,\text{ B and C}

I hope this helps you
