At a track meet, Tim ran at a constant speed of 300 meters per minute. After 8 minutes, he still had 600 meters left to run. The distance Tim ran was three times as long as the distance Eric ran. What was the distance that Eric ran?​

Respuesta :

Okay so 300 meters per minute and he ran 8 minutes..

300x8=2400

He still had 600 left to go...

2400+600=3,000

He had to run three times longer than Eric...

3000/3=1000

Does that make sense?
