To train for a marathon, Colleen plans to run four miles the first week and 150% the number of miles next week. How many miles will colleen run the next week?
4 * 1.5 = ______ hours
Correction -- the answer is in miles not hours.
Colleen plans to run four miles the first week. The following week, she will run 150% the number of miles.
To find the number of miles Colleen will run the next week, we need to calculate 150% of four miles.
Step 1: Calculate 150% of four miles
150% of four miles = (150/100) * 4 miles
150% of four miles = 6 miles
Therefore, Colleen will run 6 miles the next week.
To find out how many miles Colleen will run the next week, we need to calculate 150% of the number of miles she ran in the first week.
Given that Colleen ran four miles in the first week, we can calculate 150% of four miles by multiplying four by 1.5 (since 150% can be written as 1.5).
Miles in the second week = 4 miles * 1.5 = 6 miles.
Therefore, Colleen plans to run 6 miles in the next week.
