Andrea has a goal of running at least 50 miles this month. She has already run 7 miles. How many miles does Andrea need to run each day to meet her goal if there are 25 days left in the month

Respuesta :

Answer:

At least 1.72 miles per day.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Goal of running is at least 50 miles in a month.

           Andrea have already run 7 miles.

           Days left in the month is 25.

As given, Andrea have already run 7 miles.

∴ Andrea need to run this month= [tex]50\ miles - 7\ miles= 43\ miles[/tex]

Days remaining this month is 25.

Now, finding miles need to run each day to meet her goal.

Miles need to run each day= [tex]\frac{remaining\ miles}{remaining\ days}[/tex]

⇒ Miles need to run each day= [tex]\frac{43}{25} = 1.72\ miles[/tex]

∴ Andrea need to run at least 1.72 miles to meet her goal this month.
