Maura runs 5 miles in 1.25 hours. ava runs 3 miles in 50 minutes, or 0.8 hour. who runs faster?

Maura runs faster than Ava

Step-by-step explanation:

If Maura can run 5 in 1.25 hours.

Then you need to see how far they can run in 1 hour. To do that divide 1.25 by 1.25 and 5 by 1.25.

That equals 4. So Maura can run 4 miles per hour

If Ava can run 3 miles in .83 hours.

Then you need to see how far she can run in one hour. To do that divide .83 by .83 and 3 by .83.

That equals about 3.61 miles per hour.

So Maura can run faster than Ava.
