Given the statement:

Alonzo ran 4 miles in 34 minutes

Determine how many minutes will it take him to run 7 miles.

Solution:

Find first the unit rate by dividing the total distance with the time.

= 4 miles/34 mins

= 0.12 mile/min

Divide 7 miles with 0.12 mile/min in order to determine the time.

= 7 mi/0.12 mi/min

=  58.33 minutes

Final answer:

=  58.33 minutes
