Marta runs a race against her best friend Markesha. Marta

runs at a rate of 7 miles in 1 hour. Markesha runs at a rate of
4 miles in 0.5 hour. Who runs at a faster rate?

Markesha because in the information in the text it appears that Eya runs 4 miles in 0.5 hours, that is, I want to get to the end that Markesha would beat Marta

because if you run 4 miles for 0.5 hours you would be reaching the finish line in less than 10 minutes
