If Kimberly walks 5 miles in 40 minutes, then Kimberly will walk how far in 110 minutes?
Assuming she keeps up that pace --
5/40 = x/110
40x = 550
x = 13.75 miles
To find out how far Kimberly will walk in 110 minutes, we can set up a proportion based on the information given.
We know that Kimberly walks 5 miles in 40 minutes. Let's call the distance she walks in 110 minutes "x".
We can set up the proportion as follows:
5 miles / 40 minutes = x miles / 110 minutes
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
5 * 110 = 40 * x
550 = 40x
Now, to solve for x, we need to divide both sides of the equation by 40:
550 / 40 = x
Simplifying gives us:
13.75 = x
Therefore, Kimberly will walk 13.75 miles in 110 minutes.
