Scott likes to run long distances. he can run 30km in 90 mins. he wants to know how many minutes it will make to run 67 at the same pace

Sagot :

FORMULA:

[tex]d = r \times t[/tex]

where d = distance, r = rate, and t = time

SOLUTION:

First, we need to find the rate. Thus,

[tex] d_{1} = r \times t_{1} \\ 30 = r \times 90 \\ \: \: \: \: \: r = \frac{30}{90} = \frac{1}{3} [/tex]

We can now solve for the time it takes to run a distance of 67 kms. That is,

[tex] d_{2} = \frac{1}{3} \times t_{2} \\ 67 = \frac{1}{3} \times t_{2} \\ \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: t_{2} = 67 \times 3 = 201[/tex]

ANSWER:

Therefore, it only takes [tex]\green{\boxed{201 \: minutes}}[/tex]

for Scott to run in a 67 km distance.
