Question

The distance around the track is .25 mile. Maura ran 0.6 of the distance around the track. How far did she run?

Answer 1

Explanation:

The distance around the track is given as 0.25 miles. Maura ran 0.6 of that distance.

To find how far she ran, we can multiply the distance around the track by the fraction representing the portion she ran:

Distance Maura ran = 0.6 * 0.25 miles

Calculating this:

Distance Maura ran = 0.6 * 0.25

= 0.15 miles

Therefore, Maura ran a distance of 0.15 miles.
