if I run at 9.5 miles per hour how long will it take me to run 300 meters.
-------------------------------------------------------
!st) Convert m to miles.
1 meter = 0.00062 miles
so:
1*(300)meters = 0.00062*(300) miles
300meters = 0.186 miles
-------------------------------------------------------
2nd.) Set up a proportion. Remember if miles is one the top of one fraction it must be on the top of the other one as well. Use information in step 1 to fill out fraction on the right side of the equal sign. (60 minutes=1 hour)
60 minutes /9.5 miles = x minutes/0.186 miles
-------------------------------------------------------
3rd.) Cross multiply and solve for x.
60 minutes/9.5 miles = x minutes/0.186 miles
9.5x=(60)0.186
9.5x=11.16
9.5x/9.5=11.16/9.5
x=1.174736842
-------------------------------------------------------
4th.)
If you run at 9.5 miles per hour it should take you approximately 1 minute and 17 seconds to run 300 meters.
