To determine how long it will take you to walk 1 mile at a pace of \( \frac{2}{3} \) mile in 16 minutes, let's first find your speed in miles per minute.
1. Calculate your speed:
\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{2/3 \text{ miles}}{16 \text{ minutes}} = \frac{2}{3 \times 16} = \frac{2}{48} = \frac{1}{24} \text{ miles per minute}
\]
2. Now, to find how long it takes to walk 1 mile, we can use the formula:
\[
\text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} = \frac{1 \text{ mile}}{1/24 \text{ miles per minute}} = 1 \times 24 \text{ minutes} = 24 \text{ minutes}
\]
So, it will take you **24 minutes** to walk 1 mile at your given pace.
1. Calculate your speed:
\[
\text{Speed} = \frac{2/3 \text{ miles}}{16 \text{ minutes}} = \frac{2}{3 \times 16} = \frac{2}{48} = \frac{1}{24} \text{ miles per minute}
\]
2. Now, to find how long it takes to walk 1 mile, we can use the formula:
\[
\text{Time} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Speed}} = \frac{1 \text{ mile}}{1/24 \text{ miles per minute}} = 1 \times 24 \text{ minutes} = 24 \text{ minutes}
\]
So, it will take you **24 minutes** to walk 1 mile at your given pace.
