Question

Keisha runs 6 miles in 45 minutes. At the same rate, how many minutes would she take to run 4 miles?

Answer 1

30 min

Explanation:

She takes 45 minutes to run 6 miles.

Lets simplify this. If we divide by 3, then we know that:

She takes 15 minutes to run 2 miles.

Therefore, to find the amount of time it takes to run 4 miles, we just multiply 15 by 2.

Therefore it takes her 30 mins to run 4 miles.
