    Given: The distance traveled by jogger (d) = 1 mile

    Here, 1 mile = 1609 m

    So, d = 1 mile * (1609 m / 1 mile) = 1609 m

    Time taken by jogger (t) = 16 minutes

    Here, 1 minute = 60 seconds

    So, t = 16 minutes * (60 s / 1 minute) = 960 s

    Formula Used: Speed = Distance / Time

    Solution: Speed = d / t

    or, Speed = 1609 m / 960 s

    or, Speed = 1.676 m / s

    or, Speed ≈ 1.7 m / s

    Hence, the required speed of the jogger will be 1.7 m/s.
