Question

Jared and Pedro walk 1 mile in about 15 minutes. They can keep up pace for several hours. About how far they walk in 65 minutes

Answer 1

Answer:

Jared and Pedro walked a total of 4.3 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

• The equation for distance is speed = distance ÷ time.
• Rearrange the equation to make distance the subject:

        (multiply both sides by time)

        Distance = Speed × Time

• Convert your numbers into suitable units:

        1 mile ÷ 15 = 0.06m/minute

• Finally, substitute the numbers into the equation and solve:

        Distance = 0.06 × 65 = 4.3miles (rounded to the nearest decimal place)
