Question

Kyah and Jasmine are running in a long distance race. They are running around a track that is 1/5 of km long. Kyah can run 6 laps in 10 min and Jasmine can run 1 km in 7 min. Who is running faster?? Prove your answer?? Plzz I will give you 100 points

Answer 1

Jasmine is running faster.

Since the track is 1/5 of a km and she can run 1km in 7 minutes, divide seven to get 1.4.

This means that Jasmine can run one lap in 1.4 minutes.

Since a Kyah can run 6 laps in 10 minutes, do 10 divided by 6 and the answe will be 1.6 repeating.

1.4 < 1.6 so Jasmine is faster
