To determine how many places there will be for runners to drink water every 0.2 miles in a marathon that is 26.2 miles long, we can divide the total distance by the interval:
\[
\frac{26.2 \text{ miles}}{0.2 \text{ miles}} = 131
\]
Thus, there will be **131** places for runners to drink water during the marathon. The correct answer is **131**.
\[
\frac{26.2 \text{ miles}}{0.2 \text{ miles}} = 131
\]
Thus, there will be **131** places for runners to drink water during the marathon. The correct answer is **131**.
