Answer:
6.5 miles in 1 hour and they will run 75% of the full distance in 1 hour.
Step-by-step explanation:
The distance covered by two marathon runners = 26 miles
They takes 4 hours
We need to find how many miles did they run in 1 hour
In 4 hour, the distance covered is 26 miles
To find distance covered in 1 hour, divide 26 by 4 such that.
[tex]d=\dfrac{26}{4}\\\\d=6.5\ \text{miles/hour}[/tex]
So, they will cover 6.5 miles in 1 hour.
For percentage,
[tex]\%=\dfrac{26-6.5}{26}\times 100\\\\=75\%[/tex]
So, they will run 75% of the full distance in 1 hour.
