In 2013, the average time men in the united states could run a Marathon was about four hours and 16 minutes. If a marathon is 26.2 miles, what was the average speed?

Respuesta :

The answer is 9.8 miles per hour.

Answer: The answer is 0.102m/min^2.

Explanation:

Average speed is: total distance/ total time

So the four hours and 16 minutes converted into minutes is 240+ 16= 256. This is the time so the time goes in the denominator for the distance. So then you have to do your total distance and they gave that to you. Your total distance is 26.2 miles. So you divide 26.2/256 and you should get 0.102 or 0.10 m/min^2
