A sprinter finished a 100-meter race in a time of 12.63 seconds.

If the sprinter were able to keep the same rate of speed, how long
would it take him to complete the 10,000-meter race?

Answer:

1263 seconds

Explanation:

100 meters = 12.63 seconds

multiply both sides by 100 since

100*100= 10,000 meters

12.63*100= 1263 seconds
