deon runs 3 miles in 35 minutes. At the same rate, how many miles would he run in 84 minutes?

Cross multiply and solve for x.

3/35 = x/84

7.207

To find out how many miles Deon would run in 84 minutes, we need to determine the rate at which he runs.

First, let's calculate his rate in miles per minute. We can do this by dividing the number of miles by the number of minutes:

Rate = Distance / Time

Rate = 3 miles / 35 minutes

Now, we can calculate Deon's rate:

Rate = 0.086 miles per minute (rounded to 3 decimal places)

Next, we can use this rate to find out how many miles Deon would run in 84 minutes. We multiply the rate by the number of minutes:

Distance = Rate * Time

Distance = 0.086 miles per minute * 84 minutes

Finally, let's calculate the distance Deon would run:

Distance = 7.224 miles (rounded to 3 decimal places)

So, Deon would run approximately 7.224 miles in 84 minutes.
