This question was answered but not by finding a range?

If Jim and Mary jog 12 miles in a week. Is it reasonable that the jog 624 miles in a year. To solve problem need to estimate by finding a range.

To find a range, we need to estimate the minimum and maximum values that can be expected. In this case, we know that Jim and Mary jog 12 miles in a week. To estimate the minimum value, we assume that they consistently jog the same distance every week, which means 12 miles x 52 weeks = 624 miles in a year (this is the maximum value).

To estimate the maximum value, we assume that they jog the maximum possible distance in a week, which means they jog continuously without taking any breaks. Since it's unlikely that they would be able to jog every single day without any rest, we can use a more conservative estimate. Let's say they jog 6 days a week, and on each of those days, they jog at a moderate pace for 2 hours, covering a distance of 6 miles per hour. That would give us 6 miles x 6 days x 52 weeks = 1,872 miles in a year (this is the maximum value).

Therefore, the estimated range for the distance Jim and Mary jog in a year is between 624 miles and 1,872 miles. Since 624 miles is within this range, it is reasonable to assume that they could jog that distance in a year.
