Answer:
Leila is a better runner since she ran 1 lap faster than Maria.
Step-by-step explanation:
Leila and Maria were at track tryouts.The is 3/5 kilometers around.
•Leila ran 3 laps in 7 minutes.
•Maria ran 1 laps in 3 minutes.
We cannot compare the speed of both the runners directly. So what we do is that we find which runner ran one lap the fastest.
Maria ran 1 lap in 3 minutes.
Leila ran 3 laps in 7 minutes that is she would have run 1 lap in 2.33 minutes.
Leila ran 1 lap in 2.33 minutes.
Hence leila is the better runner.
