Arunner is 7/8 mile from the finish line. if she can travel 3/8 mile per minute, how long will it take her to finish the race?

7/3 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed if the runner is given by:

We have that: speed =3/8 miles per minute and distance =7/8 miles

We substitute into the formula to get:

This simplifies to

Therefore it will take 7/3 miniutes to finish the race.

hey! so 1 (25) out of 4 (100) is 25 so your answer is 25%. it's like quarters!

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
