Question

Phoebe runs at 12km/h and walks at 5km/h. One afternoon she ran and walked a total of 17km. If she ran for the same length of time as she walked for how long did she run

Answer 1

If correct, it should be one hour. Maybe try and solve it yourself to see if this makes sense

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume the total trip that afternoon took t hours

12(t/2) + 5(t/2) = 17 => t = 2

So she ran for 1 hour.
