    8 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let t represent the time for one mile. We are told the ratio of minutes to miles is constant, so we have the proportion ...

    time / distance = t / (1 mi) = (208 min) / (26 mi)

    Multiplying both sides of the equation by (1 mi), we have ...

    t = (208/26) min = 8 min

    Geri's average pace was 8 minutes to run 1 mile.
