Question

At football practice, James had to sprint 40 yards along the field. He did this sprint 22 times.
What distance did he run, in miles?

Answer 1

Answer:

0.5 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Remark

I'm going to assume that the total number of sprints was 22. If he sprinted back then there and back counts as 2 sprints.

Formula

Total distance = 22 * 40

Solution

Total distance = 880 yards.

There are 1760 yards in a mile.

The number of miles he ran was 880/1760 = 1/2 mile or 0.5 miles.
