Emma jogs 2 miles along the beach in 1 3 of an hour. If she travels at a constant rate, how far will she jog in an hour? 1. Use the known information to write a rate. Emma's rate: 2 miles 1 3 hours 2. Write an equivalent rate with a denominator of 1. 2(3) miles 1 3 (3) hours = ? 1 hour She will jog miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Emma jogs 2 miles along the beach in 1/3 of an hour. At a constant rate, the distance that she jogs on 1 hour would be

Let x represent the number of mikes that she would jog in 1 hour.

If 2 miles = 1/3 of an hour, then

x = 1 hour

Cross multiplying, it becomes

x × 1/3 = 2 × 1

x/3 = 2

x = 3 × 2 = 6 miles

The equivalent rate with a denominator of 1 is 6/1 miles

rounding to the nearest thousandth would be 452,000
