Answer: x = 15

Explanation:

Step 1: Cross-multiply.

x /5 = 6 /2

x*(2) = (6)*(5)

2x=30

Step 2: Divide both sides by 2.

2x /2 = 30/2

x=15

hope this helps :D

Steve can jog 14 miles in 2 hours. At this rate, how many miles can he jog in 1/4 hour?

Assoli18 [71]

Answer:

1 3/4 miles in 1/4 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Write and solve an equation of ratios:

x (1/4) hr

--------- = ------------

14 mi 2 hr

Cross multiplying, we get 2x = (1/4)(14), or

x = (1/4)(7), or x = 7/4

Steve can jog 7/4 miles in 1/4 hour. That's 1 3/4 miles in 1/4 hour.
