Question

A relay race is 1 3/4 miles long each team has 4 runners if each runner runs the same distance in the race how far will each runner run

Answer 1

Answer: Each runner will run 7/16 miles.

Explanation:

Divide the number of miles among the number of runners to find out how far each runner will run

So there are 4 runners and the distance is 1 3/4 miles long so divide 1 3/4 by 4 to solve for the situation.

1 3/4 = 7/4

`(7)/(4) / (4)/(1)` = 7/16
