Question
One lap around the track is equal to 1/8 of a mile. A horse ran a distance of 9 laps in 2 minutes and 30 seconds. What was the horse's average speed in miles per minute?

Reiny
9 laps = 9(1/8) or 9/8 miles
speed = (9/8) / 2.5 minutes
= 1.125/2.5 mpm
= .45 miles/min
speed = (9/8) / 2.5 minutes
= 1.125/2.5 mpm
= .45 miles/min
