Respuesta :
Each person needs to run 6 11/20 miles to divide the distance up equally. (You just divide 131/5 by 4, because that's how many people are going to run it).
Answer:
6.55 miles to run
Step-by-step explanation:
A distance of marathon is = [tex]\frac{131}{5}[/tex] miles long.
or [tex]26\frac{1}{5}[/tex] miles
If four people divide up the distance equally.
To calculate the distance each person need to run we will divide [tex]\frac{131}{5}[/tex] by 4
= [tex]\frac{\frac{131}{5} }{4}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{131}{5}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{131}{20}[/tex]
= [tex]6\frac{11}{20}[/tex]
= 6.55 miles
each 4 person need 6.55 miles to run.
