Respuesta :

Answer:

6.5 miles in 1 hour and they will run 75% of the full distance in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance covered by two marathon runners = 26 miles

They takes 4 hours

We need to find how many miles did they run in 1 hour

In 4 hour, the distance covered is 26 miles

To find distance covered in 1 hour, divide 26 by 4 such that.

[tex]d=\dfrac{26}{4}\\\\d=6.5\ \text{miles/hour}[/tex]

So, they will cover 6.5 miles in 1 hour.

For percentage,

[tex]\%=\dfrac{26-6.5}{26}\times 100\\\\=75\%[/tex]

So, they will run 75% of the full distance in 1 hour.
