Respuesta :

The distance Terry needs to run when the winner crosses the finish line is 1. 6 miles.

How to find the distance Terry needs to run?

The race was a 10 km race and she has completed 74% of the race when the winner crosses the finish line.

Therefore, the number of more miles Terry need to cover can be calculated as follows:

74 / 100 × 10 = 740  / 100  = 7.4 km

He has covered 7.4 km.

The distance remaining to cover = 10 km - 7.4 km = 2.6 km

Therefore,

4km  = 2.48 miles

2.6 km = ?

cross multiply

The distance remaining to cover(miles) = 2.6 × 2.48 / 4

The distance remaining to cover(miles) = 6.448 / 4

The distance remaining to cover(miles) = 1.612

The distance remaining to cover(miles) = 1.6 miles
