Question

Leila runs 6 miles in 50 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would she run in 35 minutes?

Answer 1

Answer: 4.2 miles

Leila running rate = 6 miles/ 50 minutes = 3/25 mi per minute

Rate = distance/ time

3/25 = distance / 35

3/25 * 35 = distance

4.2 = distance

so she can run 4.2 miles
