You can put this solution on YOUR website!
In 80 mins...............7 miles
In 80/80 mins............7/80 miles
In 1 mins............7/80 miles
In (32)*1 mins.........(7/80)*(32)miles
In 32 mins.........(7/80)(32)miles
In 32 mins.........(7/5)(2)miles
In 32 mins.........14/5miles
In 32 mins.........2.8miles

Or
In 1 minute keiko runs = 7/80 = 0.0875 miles
In 32 minutes keiko run = 0.875*32 = 2.8 miles
