Question 50066: A runner won the 2006 Atlanta marathon, a 26.2 mile course, in time of 2 hr 9 min and 52 sec. What was the runners average speed (rate), in miles per hour, for the course? Answer by darq(90) (Show Source):
You can put this solution on YOUR website! 9/60= 3/20 = 15/100
so it endured 2.15 hours
so divide the mile to the hour
26.2/2.15=2620/215
=524/43
12
