You can put this solution on YOUR website! How do I solve the distance traveled in x minutes at a pace of y seconds/mile?
x minutes = 60x seconds
y seconds/mile = 1/y miles/second
---------------------
Specifically if a runner runs 9:31 per mile for 10 minutes how far has he gone?
9:31 mins/mile = 1 mile/9:31 = 1/571 miles/second
d = r*t
d = (1/571)mi/sec * 600 seconds
d = 600/571 miles
