Answer:

Janas rate is of 4 miles per day.

Explanation:

Her rate is the number of miles she ran per day.

We can solve this using a rule of three.

In 7 days, she ran 28 miles. How many miles she ran a day, that is, in one day?

1 day - x miles

7 days - 28 miles


7x = 28


x = (28)/(7)


x = 4

Janas rate is of 4 miles per day.
