Nina ran 5.5 miles in 50.6 minutes. How many miles per minutes did she run?

Answer 1

5.5/50.6 = how many miles per minute she ran

= approximately 0.1087 miles per minute

slightly more than 1/10 a mile per minute

which is also about 6 miles per hour

walking is about 5 mph, so she isn't running very fast

Winning time in the Boston Marathon is about 2 hours for 26 miles or 13 mph
