Mr. Kumar decided to take up running for the new year. The first week he ran .75 miles each day. The second week he ran a 1.5 miles each day. The third week he was able to run 2.25 miles per day. If the pattern continued into his fourth week of running, how many miles has Mr. Kumar run since taking up running?

If the pattern continued Mr.Kumar will run 3 miles in the 4th week. Mr.Kumar will have ran 52.5 miles since taking up ruining.

A. If we divide 150 by 20, we get the unit rate for the ratio 150 minutes for every 20 miles.

150÷20=7.5

So the runner is running 7.5 minutes per mile. We can multiply this unit rate by the number of miles:

7.5minutes/mile ×6 miles=45 minutes

Thus it will take her 45 minutes to run 6 miles at this pace.

B. If it takes her 45 minutes to run 6 miles, it will take her 45÷3=15 minutes to run 6÷3=2 miles at the same pace.

C. If it takes her 15 minutes to run 2 miles, it will take her 4×15=60 minutes to run 4×2=8 miles at the same pace. Since 60 minutes is 1 hour, she is running at a speed of 8 miles per hour.

D. We found her pace in minutes per miles in part (a).
