Question

Yoko runs 7 miles in 80 minutes.At the same rate,how many miles would she run in 64 minutes?

Answer 1

Greetings! Lets solve this shall we ?

So, we must figure out how many miles Yoko ran in 64 minutes such that we set up a proportion to obtain

7 / 80 = x / 64..............Then we cross multiply such that

80x = 64(7)

80x = 448............Then divide 80 to both sides such that

x = 5.6 miles

I hope this helped!
