Raven and Claire are training to run a marathon in the spring Ruben run 16 miles over a four day. Claire runs 12 miles over a three day. Are they running at the same rate of speed respond one for yes or two for no
Two for no.
To determine if Raven and Claire are running at the same rate of speed, we need to compare the average distance they run per day.
First, let's find the average distance that Ruben runs per day:
Ruben runs 16 miles over a four day, so the average distance per day would be 16 miles / 4 days = 4 miles per day.
Next, let's find the average distance that Claire runs per day:
Claire runs 12 miles over a three day, so the average distance per day would be 12 miles / 3 days = 4 miles per day.
Since both Ruben and Claire have the same average distance per day at 4 miles, they are running at the same rate of speed.
Therefore, the answer is 1 (yes), they are running at the same rate of speed.
To determine if Raven and Claire are running at the same rate of speed, we need to compare the distance they run per day.
To find Raven's daily distance, we divide the total distance he runs (16 miles) by the number of days (4). Therefore, Raven runs 4 miles per day (16 miles / 4 days = 4 miles/day).
To find Claire's daily distance, we divide the total distance she runs (12 miles) by the number of days (3). This means Claire runs 4 miles per day (12 miles / 3 days = 4 miles/day) as well.
Since both Raven and Claire run 4 miles per day, they are indeed running at the same rate of speed. Therefore, the answer is one (yes).
