Samuel runs around a 1-mile track in 10 minutes, and Sophia runs around the same track in 10 minutes. Assuming they continue running at their respective speeds, how many total
miles will they run in 35 minutes? Express your answer as a mixed number.

3.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

Samuel runs around a 1-mile track in 10 minutes

Samuel's speed is

speed= distance/time

speed= 1/10= 0.1 miles per minute

Sophia runs around the same track in 10 minutes

Hence Sophia's speed is also = 0.1 miles per minute

Step two:

Given that the time is 35 minutes, and their speeds are 0.1 miles per minute, we can find the distance from

speed= distance/time

distance= speed*time

distance= 0.1*35

distance= 3.5 miles
