Geri ran a marathon race. It took her 3 hours and 28 minutes to run 26 miles. How many minutes did it take her to run one mile if she ran at the same rate the whole race.

It took her 8 minutes to run one mile.

Explanation: Since she ran at the same rate the whole race, taking 3h 28min to run 26 miles, we simply divide the total time she took by the miles she ran, to find the time she took for one mile.

Converting the time into minutes will make it easier, so: 3h 28min = (3 * 60) + 28 = 208 minutes.

So one mile will take 208 / 26 = 8 minutes
