Answer by Cromlix(4381) (Show Source): You can put this solution on YOUR website!
It takes Jennifer 25mins to run 1.5 miles
Then it takes her 25/1.5 to run 1 mile
16.6mins to run 1 mile
Therefore it will take her 16.6 x 8.4mins to run 8.4 miles
= 140mins to run 8.4 miles
= 2hrs 20mins.
Hope this helps
:-)
