Brielle and Joshua are running a half marathon race, which is 13.1 miles long. It takes Brielle 10 minutes to run 1.25 miles
and Joshua 18 minutes to run 1.5 miles. If they run at the
same speed for the entire shift, who will run the marathon
faster? How many minutes will it take each of them to run the
race?

Answer and Explanation:

Brielle will run the marathon faster.

Work:

Brielle: 13.1/1.25=10.48*10=104.8 minutes

Joshua: 13.1/1.5=8.73...*18=157.2 minutes

Brielle finished in 104.8 minutes.

Joshua finished in 157.2 minutes.

Brielle finished the half marathon race by 52.5 minutes faster than Joshua.
