Distance Keith ran = 26 miles

Time it took
= 3 hours 2 minutes = [(3 * 60) + 2] minutes = (180 + 2) minutes = 182 minutes

Hence, 

Speed (Rate) = \frac{Distance}{Time} =  \frac{26}{182} =  \frac{13}{91} =  \frac{1}{7} miles per minute

Hence,

Time taken to complete 1 mile
= \frac{Distance}{Speed} =  \frac{1}{ \frac{1}{7} } = 1 *  \frac{7}{1}
= 7 minutes 

Hence, the answer is B.

Nelson needs 3 and 3/4 cups of flour to make a loaf of bread and 2 and 2/3 cups of flour to make pretzels. How many cups of flou
matrenka [14]

Answer:

that is 6 and 5/ 12 cups of flour are required

Step-by-step explanation:

total number of cups required to make a loaf of bread

= 3 + ¾

making their denominators equal and that to 4

= 12/ 4 + 3/ 4

adding numerators

= (12 + 3)/ 4

= 15/ 4

total cups of flour required to make pretzels

= 2 + ⅔

making their denominators equal and that to 3

= 6/ 3 + 2/ 3

adding nunerators

= (6 + 2)/ 3

= 8/ 3

Total cups required:-

= 15/ 4 + 8/ 3

taking lcm of denominators to make the fractions equivalent

= {(15 × 3) + (8 × 4)}/ 12

= {45 + 32}/ 12

= 77/ 12

6 \frac{5}{ 12}

<em>that is 6 and 5/ 12 cups of flour are required</em>.
