Given that,

A circular running track is ¼ mile long.

Elena runs on this track, completing each lap in 1/16 of an hour

To find,

Elena’s running speed.

Solution,

Formula used :

Speed = distance/time

$v=\dfrac{\dfrac{1}{4}}{\dfrac{1}{16}}\\\\=\dfrac{1}{4}\times 16\\\\=4\ mph$

So, Elena’s running speed is 4 mph.
