Scott runs 4 sprints of 20 yards each. If he continues his routine, how many practices will it take for Scott to have sprinted a total of 2 miles combined?

It will take 44 practices for Scott to have sprinted a total of 2 miles combined

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using rules of three.

First step:

Scott practice is measured in yards.

We want to know how many practices it will take for him to have sprinted 2 miles.

So we pass 2 miles to yards

Each mile has 1760 yards.

So 2 miles is 1760*2 = 3520 yards.

A practice:

4 sprints of 20 yards each.

So 4*20 = 80 yards.

A practice is 80 yards. How many practices for 3520 yards?

1 practice - 80 yards

x practices - 3520 yards

80x = 3520

x = 3520/80

x = 44

It will take 44 practices for Scott to have sprinted a total of 2 miles combined
