Stephanie ran 1 lap in 6 minutes. At this rate, how far would she run in 30 minutes?

We know that 6 goes into 30 five times, so multiply the amount of laps in 6 minutes by 5.

(6 × 5 = 30)

1 × 5 = 5

Stephanie will run 5 laps in 30 minutes.

5 laps in 30 minutes

Step-by-step explanation: To solve this problem, our first step is to write down the unit ratio that is involved.

In this case, it's laps/minutes.

Next, we set up a proportion based on the information in the problem.

We know that Stephanie can run 1 lap in 6 minutes.

So we can set up the ratio 6/1.

We're asked how many laps she would run if she

has been running for 30 minutes.

So that's x/30.

Now, our proportion reads .

Notice that the 30 minutes must go on the bottom in our second ratio because our unit ratio tells us that we put laps/minutes.

Solving from here, we use the means-extremes property.

The product of the extremes,

(1)(30) equals the product of the means, (6)(x).

So we have (1)(30) or 30 equals (6)(x) or 6x.

So 30 = 6x.

Dividing both sides by 6, 5 = x.

This means that Stephanie will have traveled 5 laps in 30 minutes.

518,400

step-by-step explanation:

the area is multiplying all the given measurements together.

40 * 18 * 30 * 24 = 518,400
