Given,
Distance covered by athlete in one hour = 9 miles
1 hour = 60 minutes
Therefore;
9 miles distance is covered in 60 minutes.
9 miles = 60 minutes
1 mile = [tex]\frac{60}{9}\ minutes[/tex]
1.2 miles = [tex]\frac{60}{9}*1.2=\frac{72}{9}[/tex]
1.2 miles = 8 minutes
It takes the athlete 8 minutes to jog 1.2 miles.
