Josh runs 3 miles in 25minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 20
minutes?
Answer provided by our tutors
let 'x' represent the number of miles that Josh will run in 20 min
since he runs at the same rate the distance is directly proportional to the time:
3 : 25 = x : 20
by solving we find:
x = 2.4 mi
