Question

Jimmy ran with the speed of m miles per hour. How far did he run in t minutes?

Answer 1

Answer:

Jimmy run in t minute =  $\frac{m*t}{60}$ miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given  : Jimmy ran with the speed of m miles per hour.

To find : How far did he run in t minutes.

Solution : We have given

Speed  = m miles per hour .

Speed =  $\frac{Distance}{time}$.

We can say in 1 hour Jimmy ran =m  miles.

1 hour = 60 minute .

Jimmy ran in 60 minute = m miles .

Jimmy run in 1 minute = $\frac{m}{60}$ miles.

Jimmy run in t minute =  $\frac{m}{60}* t$ miles.

Jimmy run in t minute =  $\frac{m*t}{60}$ miles.

Therefore, Jimmy run in t minute =  $\frac{m*t}{60}$ miles.

Answer 2

distance = rate × time

distance = (m mi/h) × (t min) × (1 h)/(60 min)

distance = m·t/60 mi

Jimmy ran mt/60 miles.
