Question

Han ran 10 meters in 2.7 seconds. Priya ran 10 meters in 2.4 seconds. How long would it take han to run 50 meters.

Answer 1

Hans would take 13.5 seconds to run 50 meters

Priya would take 12 seconds to run 50 meters

--------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Since they each ran 10 meters for a certain amount of time you would multiply the seconds by 5 since 10x5=50

When you do that you get

13.5 for Han's time by multiplying 2.7x5=13.5

and

12 seconds for Priya's time by multiplying 2.4x5
