rubio decides he is going to walk to his friends house, which is 1 mile from his house. He can walk at a pace of 2/3 mile and 16 minutes. At this rate, how long will it take him to get to his friends house

1 answer

To find out how long it will take Rubio to get to his friend's house, we need to divide the distance (1 mile) by his walking pace (2/3 mile per 16 minutes).

If Rubio walks 2/3 mile in 16 minutes, then he walks 1 mile in (16 minutes * 3/2 mile) = 48/2 = 24 minutes.

Therefore, it will take him 24 minutes to get to his friend's house.
