Question

Three students are arguing over who can run the fastest. Student A says that she can run 2/3 mile in six minutes. Student B says that he can run 1/2 mile in four minutes. Student C says that he can run 4/5 mile in eight minutes. What fraction of a mile can Student C run in one minute?

Answer 1

1/10 of a mile. 4/5 is equivalent to .8, and dividing that by 8 would give you .1, and that is equivalent to 1/10.
