Rubio decides he is going to walk to his friend's house, which is 1 mile from his house. He can walk at a pace of 2/3 mile in 16 minutes. At this rate, how long will it take him to get to his friend’s house?(1 point)

Answer 1

To find out how long it will take Rubio to get to his friend's house, we need to divide the distance to be covered by the pace at which he walks.

Rubio's pace is 2/3 mile in 16 minutes.

So, the time it will take him to walk 1 mile will be (16 minutes / (2/3) mile).

Multiplying the numerator and denominator by 3/2 gives us (16 minutes * (3/2)) / 1 mile.

Thus, it will take him (48 minutes) / 1 mile, or simply 48 minutes to get to his friend’s house.
