Abe and his puppy Rover are out for a morning jog at a comfortable pace of 10 minutes per
mile. If they keep up this pace for 2 hours, how many miles will they jog?

Answer:

[tex]\boxed{\text{12 mi}}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

1.Convert hours to minutes

60 min = 1 h

[tex]\text{Time} = \text{2 h} \times \dfrac{\text{60 min}}{\text{1 h}} = \text{120 min}[/tex]

2. Calculate the distance

They can cover 1 mi in 10 min

[tex]\text{Distance} = \text{120 min} \times \dfrac{\text{1 mi}}{\text{10 min}} = \textbf{12 mi}\\\\\text{Abe and his dog will jog $\boxed{\textbf{12 mi}}$}[/tex]
