Answer 1

Answer:

52+n=m

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

6.5 /52 m = n

Step-by-step explanation:

The rate is 6.5 miles / 52 minutes

We are going to run m miles in n minutes

m = 6.5 / 52 * n

We want to solve for n

Multiply each side by 52/ 6.5

6.5 /52 m = 6.5 / 52 * n * 6.5 / 52

6.5 /52 m = n
