Question

Avante walked 1 and 1/2 miles in 22.5 minutes. Avante walked at a constant rate. How long did it take him to walk 1 mile?

Answer 1

1 1/2 miles is the same as walking 1/2 a mile 3 times, so we can divide 22.5 minutes by 3 to find how long it takes to walk half a mile
22.5/3=7.5
We can then multiply 7.5 by 2 to get how long it takes to walk 1 mile
7.5 x 2 = 15 minutes
It takes Avante 15 minutes to walk 1 mile
