Question

At 10:00 a.m. han and Tyler both start running toward each other from opposite ends of a 10 mile path along the river how han can run at a pace of 12 miles per minute Tyler can run at a pace 15 miles per minute how far does han run after a half an hour

Answer 1

Answer: 2.5 miles

We are given that

Total length of path=10 mile

Han runs at a pace=12 minutes per mile

Tyler runs at a pace=15 minutes per mile

We have to find the distance run by Han after a half hour.

Half hour=30 minutes

Using unitary method

Han runs distance in 12 minutes=1 mile

Han runs distance in 1 minute= mile

Han runs distance in 30 minutes= miles

Hence, Han runs 2.5 miles after half hour.
