Question

Scott likes to run long distances. He can run 20 km in 85 minutes. He wants to know how many minutes (m) it will take him to run 52 km, at the same pace.

How long will it take Scott to run 52km?

Answer 1

221 minutes

Explanation:

52 divided by 20 would be 2.6 then you take the 85 and mulitpy it by 2.6 because 52 is 2.6 times more than 20. so 85 times 2.6 would be 221 minutes.
