nessa ran 3 laps in 10 minutes. How long would it take her
• run 5 laps at this pace? (1 point)
To find out how long it would take Nessa to run 5 laps at the same pace, we can assume that her pace per lap remains constant.
Since Nessa runs 3 laps in 10 minutes, we can find her pace by dividing the time it took her by the number of laps she ran: 10 minutes / 3 laps = 3.33 minutes per lap.
To find out how long it would take her to run 5 laps, we can multiply her pace per lap by the number of laps: 3.33 minutes/lap * 5 laps = 16.67 minutes.
Therefore, it would take Nessa approximately 16.67 minutes to run 5 laps at the same pace.
Wrong
I apologize for the incorrect response. To find out how long it would take Nessa to run 5 laps at the same pace, we can use the concept of proportion.
If Nessa runs 3 laps in 10 minutes, we can set up a proportion:
3 laps / 10 minutes = 5 laps / x minutes
Cross-multiplying, we get:
3 * x = 10 * 5
3x = 50
Dividing both sides by 3, we find:
x = 50 / 3
Therefore, it would take Nessa approximately 16.67 minutes to run 5 laps at the same pace.
