6-My home is exactly 20 miles from UMKC. How far is that distance measured in meters?

7-Okay, let's say back in my fleet-footed days (my twenties--when I was also forty pounds lighter! EEK!) I could run 3 miles in 18 minutes. Actually, my fastest time was 17:25--stud! Calculate my miles per hour for running 3 miles in 18 minutes. (Now I'm doing great to run 3 kilometers in 18 minutes!)

8-Runners are always talking about minutes per mile. This is the inverse of distance divided by time. Like, on my morning jogs I shoot for 11 minutes per mile. Next month, I'm doing a 10k (that's 10 kilometer) run with my daughter. I'm going to average 11 minutes per mile. Calculate, in minutes how long it will take me to complete the run averaging 11 minutes per mile.
