Cindy can run at 3 miles per hour and walk at 1 mile per hour. If she runs for half a mile and then walks for half a mile, how many minutes will it take her to travel the full mile?
How many minutes will it take Cindy to run half a mile? ** It will take her 0.5 miles / 3 mph * (60 minutes / 1 hour) = <<0.5/3*60=10>>10 minutes to run half a mile.
How many minutes will it take Cindy to walk half a mile? ** It will take her 0.5 miles / 1 mph * (60 minutes / 1 hour) = <<0.5/1*60=30>>30 minutes to walk half a mile.
How many minutes will it take Cindy to travel the full mile? ** Her total time is 10 + 30 = <<10+30=40>>40 minutes.
