Respuesta :

Answer: 26

Step-by-step explanation:

The following information can be gotten from the question:

Length of marathon = 26.2 miles

Interval of water stations along the route = 1 3/100 metres = 1.03 miles

Total number of water stations:

= 26.2 miles/1.03 miles

Approximating this will be:

= 26 miles/1 mile

= 26

The answer is 26
