Answer 2

It takes 30.07 minutes for Charmaine to run  4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Distance covered by  Charmaine = 6 miles

Time taken by Charmaine to run 6 miles = 45 minutes

To find:

Time taken by Charmaine to run 4 miles=?

Solution:

We know that ,   $Speed=\frac{distance}{time}$...................(1)

Substituting the values given in the question,

$speed=\frac{6}{45}$

speed=0.133 miles/minute

Re writing the equation (1), we have,

$Time=\frac{Distance}{Speed}$

Now substituting the spees and distance values, we get

Time taken by Charmaine to run 4 miles= $\frac{4}{0.133}$

Time taken by Charmaine to run 4 miles=  30.07 minutes.
