Question

every morning jim runs for 30 minutes. if jim runs 10 miles per hour, how far does he travel?

Answer 1

Answer:

5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

distance = rate times time

distance = (10 miles per hour)( 30 minutes)  30 minutes is equal to 1/2 hour

distance = $\frac{10 miles}{hour}$ $(\frac{1 hour}{2} )$  You can cancel words, like like cancelling numbers  The hours cancel out and you are left with $\frac{10 miles}{2}$  which is equal to 5 miles.

Answer 2

Answer: 5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim runs 10 miles per hour, and 30 minutes is half an hour, so divide 10 by 2.
