Problema Solution
Juan can run a three-mile race in 21 minutes.If he can maintain this speed,
how many minutes would it take for him to run 8 miles? Show all work.
Answer provided by our tutors
Speed = distance/Time
= 3/21
= 1/7 miles per minute
To run 8 miles,
Time = Distance/Speed
= 8/(1/7)
= 56 minutes
Hence, it would take 56 minutes for him to run 8 miles.
