Question

A student needs to run 3.2
km to get to school. If the student can run 5.5
mi/hr , how many hours will it take them to get to school?

Answer 1

Answer:

Hope this helps.

Explanation:

Convert from miles to kilometers (rounded to 2 decimals):

5.5 mi/h * 1.609 = 8.86 km/h

The student arrives at school in:

8.86 km ------------- 1 h

3.2 km ---------------- x  

x = 3.2 * 1 / 8.86  

x = 0.3611 hours
