Answer:
Jenn runs faster at 9 minutes/mile.
Step-by-step explanation:
Jana runs 3 miles in 1/3 hour.
1/3 hour is equivalent to 1/3*60 = 20 minutes
The ratio time/distance is the reciprocal of the speed and is greater as the speed is lower and vice-versa.
This ratio for Jana is 20/3=16.7 minutes/mile
As for Jenn, she runs 5 miles in 3/4 hour.
3/4 hour is equivalent to 3/4*60=45 minutes
The ratio time/distance is 45/5=9 minutes/mile
Since Jenn has a lower ration, her speed is greater than Jana's, thus Jenn runs faster.
