The number of runners that'll be needed for the team will be 6 runners.
Number of miles for the relay race = 1 1/2 miles
Miles to be covered by each runner = 1/4 miles
Therefore, in order to get the number of miles that are needed for the team, we will have to divide 1 1/2 miles by 1/4 mile. This will be:
= 1 1/2 ÷ 1/4
= 3/2 ÷ 1/4
= 3/2 × 4/1
= 6
Therefore, 6 runners will be needed for the relay race.
