if chase runs 5 miles in 60 minutes how far will he run in 3 hours if he continues to run at the same rate?
If Chase runs 5 miles in 60 minutes, his rate is 5/60 = 1/12 miles per minute.
Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, in 3 hours, he will run 60 x 3 = <<60*3=180>>180 minutes.
Therefore, he will run 180 x 1/12 = <<180*1/12=15>>15 miles. Answer: \boxed{15}.
To find out how far Chase will run in 3 hours at the same rate, we can use the concept of proportion.
First, let's determine the distance Chase runs in 1 hour, which is 5 miles.
Now, we want to find the distance Chase will run in 3 hours. We can set up a proportion using the formula:
Distance / Time = Distance / Time
We know that the distance Chase runs in 1 hour is 5 miles, so we can substitute this value into our proportion:
5 miles / 1 hour = Distance / 3 hours
To find the value of Distance, we can cross multiply:
5 miles * 3 hours= Distance * 1 hour
15 miles = Distance
Therefore, Chase will run a distance of 15 miles in 3 hours if he continues to run at the same rate.
To find out how far Chase will run in 3 hours if he continues to run at the same rate, we can use the formula: distance = rate × time. In this case, Chase's rate is 5 miles per 60 minutes, which can be simplified to 1 mile per 12 minutes.
First, we need to convert 3 hours into minutes since the rate is given in minutes. There are 60 minutes in an hour, so 3 hours equals 3 × 60 = 180 minutes.
Now we can calculate the distance Chase will run in 3 hours:
distance = rate × time
distance = 1 mile per 12 minutes × 180 minutes
distance = (1/12) × 180
distance = 15 miles
Therefore, if Chase continues to run at the same rate for 3 hours, he will run a distance of 15 miles.
