Brian runs 6 miles in 55 minutes at the same rate how many miles would he run in 44 minutes

4.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Make a proportion

He runs 6 miles in 55 minutes, and x miles in 44 minutes

6/55=x/44

Multiply both sides of the equation by 44 to isolate x

44 * (6/55) = (x/44) * 44

This will cancel out the 44 that x is being divided by

4.8=x

He can run 4.8 miles in 44 minutes

4.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

find the rate of change for each minute which is 0.109109 ...

then multiply by 44 and you get 4.8 miles
