You can put this solution on YOUR website!
In h hours, it would go 15*h miles.
d = r*t
------
Use THAT expression from problem 16 to find the number of hours the lion could run 0.25 hours
d = 15 mi/hr * 0.25 hr
-----
Notice that the hours cancel, leaving miles, the distance.
Including the units in your calculations can help prevent errors.
