The Boston Marathon is 26.2 miles. Use the times shown in the table to calculate the miles per hour for each division winner. Round to the nearest thousandth.
I will use this table that I found for a problem with the same statement, and for sure this will teach how to proceed, and it might even be the same data that of your table:
Division Record Holder Year Time (h)
Men's open Robert Cheruiyot 2006 2.121 Women's open Margaret Okayo 2002 2.345 Men's wheelchair Ernst VanDyk 2004 1.305 Women's wheelchair Jean Driscoll 1994 1.523
Miles per our
Just divide the distance (26.2 miles) by the time in hours
Robert 26.2 miles / 2.121 hours = 23.372 miles / hour Margaret 26.2 miles / 2.345 hours = 11.173 miles / hour Ernst 26.2 miles / 1.305 hours = 20.077 miles / hour Jean 26.2 miles / 1.523 hours = 11.203 miles / hour
