Question

Ran 10 miles in 75 minutes. If she runs at the same rate today, how many minutes would it take her to run 16 miles? *

PLZ HELP

Answer 1

7mins/10mi=xmin/16mi

You want to solve for x
So multiply both sides by 16 and you get 7*16/10=x
X=11.2

Answer 2

Answer: 120 minutes.

Explanation:

It takes her 75/10 = 7.5 minutes to run 1 mile. If she wants to run 16 miles, it will taker her 7.5 * 16 = 120 minutes.
