9 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

54 divided by 18

=

3.

3 x 3 (miles per 18 min)

=

9 miles

9 miles in 54 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Create proportions

Do it miles:minutes

In this case it would be

3:18

Then divide both sides of the proportion by three to get

1 : 6

or the statement "It takes the runner 6 minutes to run a mile."

Now create another proportion

x: 54

If he can run a mile in 6 minutes,

he can run x miles in 54 minutes.

In this case divide 54 and 6 to get 9 miles in 54 minutes.

Hope this helps!
