Question

Suppose you walk 2 miles in 35 minutes. 4. write a proportion to find how far you would walk in an hour if you were to continue at the same rate.​

Answer 1

2/35 * x/60

Explanation:

the x is what you're trying to find. the 60 is how many minutes there are in an hour. when setting up this proportion, you can't put 1 for 1 hour because you have 35 minutes. if it says minutes, then keep everything in minutes. from here, you would cross multiply and solve, that should give you the answer :) hope this helps <3
