    It would be 35 because if it take 7 minutes to run a kilometer you would have to multiply 7 • 5

    5=x

    7•5 = 35 minutes

    35 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Martin can run a kilometer in 7 minutes. If he keeps at this pace how many minutes will it take him to run a 5k race?

    To solve this, we simply need to use proportion.

    Let x represent the number of minutes that will take Martin to run a 5 kilometer race

    1 kilometer = 7 minutes

    5 kilometer = x

    cross-multiply

    1 * x = 7 * 5

    x = 35 minutes

    Therefore, it will take Martin 35 minutes to run a 5 kilometer race.
