Answer
[tex]\frac{25\text{ mi }\times\text{ 75 }}{1\text{ min }\times\text{ }75}=\frac{1875\text{ miles}}{75\text{ minutes}}[/tex]
The jet would fly 1,875 miles in 75 minutes at this rate.
Explanation
We have been given that the speed of the jet is 25 miles per minute.
And the jet flies 175 miles in 7 minutes.
We are then asked to find how far the jet would fly in 75 minutes.
175 miles = 7 minutes
25 miles = 1 minute
Let the number of miles the jet will fly in 75 minutes be x miles
So,
25 miles = 1 minute
x miles = 75 minutes
We can form a mathematical relationship by cross multiplying
(x) × 1 = 25 miles × 75 minutes
x = 1,875 miles
So, we can write the bubble as
[tex]\frac{25\text{ mi }\times\text{ 75 }}{1\text{ min }\times\text{ }75}=\frac{1875\text{ miles}}{75\text{ minutes}}[/tex]
Hope this Helps!!!
