Cara is swimming in a river. She can swim downstream up to a maximum speed of 66 meters per-minute. If she is swimming downstream at half of her maximum speed, how far will she swim in 13 minutes?

429 meters
Half of 66 is 33 so that’s half of her maximum speed.
You then take 33 and times it by 13.
66/2=33
33x13=429
Hope this helps!

It would be 429 because in the question it said “ if she was swimming downstream of HALF of her maximum speed, how far will she swim for 13 minutes” so first you would divide 66 by 2 and get 33 then you would multiply 33 by 13 to get you’re answer.
