    49 1/8 minutes

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Jamie has 1/4 of the 26.2 mile distance to go, so must finish ...

    (26.2 mi) / 4 = 6.55 mi

    The time in hours required to do that is found by dividing distance by speed:

    time = distance/speed = (6.55 mi) / (8 mi/h) = 0.81875 h

    In minutes, this is ...

    (0.81875 h) * (60 min/h) = 49.125 min = 49 1/8 min

    It will take Jamie 49 1/8 minutes to finish the race at her current speed.
