Answer 2

Answer: Willie runs 11 miles in 77 minutes.

Explanation:

To know how many miles he will run in 77 minutes we first need to know how much minutes it takes for Willie to run 1 mile.

28/4 = 7 minutes per mile.

We now want to know how much miles Willie will run if he runs for 77 minutes.

77/7 = 11 miles.

Willie runs 11 miles in 77 minutes.
