Tara walks 2 miles in 30 minutes At this rate,how far can Tara walk in 45 minutes?​

Answer 1

Explanation:

In 30 minutes she can walk 2 miles. We'll put that as a ratio. 30:2. Now to figure out how much she walks in 45 minutes, we set variable to x and make it stand for how much she walks. We have 30:2 = 45:x We cross multiply to get 30x=90, x=3. Tara can walk 3 miles in 45 minutes.
