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?(1 point) Responses 1/4 miles Start Fraction 1 over 4 End Fraction miles 15 miles 15 miles 36 miles 36 miles 0.067 miles
If Chase runs 5 miles in 60 minutes, his rate is 5 miles / 60 minutes = 1/12 miles per minute.
Therefore, in 3 hours (180 minutes), Chase will run 1/12 miles/minute * 180 minutes = 15 miles. Answer: \boxed{15 \text{ miles}}.
To find out how far Chase will run in 3 hours, we need to determine his average speed per hour.
Since Chase runs 5 miles in 60 minutes, we can calculate his speed by dividing the distance he runs by the time it takes:
Speed = Distance / Time
Speed = 5 miles / 60 minutes
Next, we need to convert the speed from minutes to hours. Since there are 60 minutes in an hour, we divide by 60:
Speed = 5 miles / 60 minutes * (1 hour / 60 minutes)
Simplifying the equation, we get:
Speed = 5 miles / 3600 hours
Now, we can calculate the distance Chase will run in 3 hours by multiplying his speed by the time:
Distance = Speed * Time
Distance = (5 miles / 3600 hours) * 3 hours
Simplifying the equation, we get:
Distance = 15 miles / 3600
So, Chase will run approximately 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 at the same rate, we need to calculate the distance he runs in one hour and then multiply it by 3.
Chase runs 5 miles in 60 minutes, so he runs 5/60 = 1/12 miles per minute.
Now, we need to find out how far he runs in one hour. Since there are 60 minutes in one hour, we can multiply 1/12 by 60:
1/12 * 60 = 5 miles.
Therefore, Chase will run 5 miles in one hour.
Finally, to find out how far he will run in 3 hours, we can multiply 5 by 3:
5 * 3 = 15 miles.
So, Chase will run 15 miles in 3 hours if he continues to run at the same rate.
