Question 198136: Miguel walks 3 kilometers to school in 40 minutes. On Saturday he plans to walk to a friend's house which is 1 kilometer past school. How long will it take him to walk to his friend's house? This is what I have:
I took 40 minutes divided it by 3 kilometers to find that it's taking him 13.3 min. to walk one kilometer. I then multiplied that by the 4 total kilometers he would walk to his friend's house and I came up with 53.3 min. So it would take Miguel 53 min. to walk to his friend's house, is this correct?
