It takes 24 minutes for Jana to walk one mile. At that rate, how far in miles will she walk in 10 minutes? Express your answer as a decimal to the nearest tenth.

I'm obviously not CPhill but

if it takes Jana 24 minutes to walk 1 mile

then it takes her 1 minute to walk 1/24 miles

so in 10 minutes she'll walk

\(\frac{1}{24}\times10\) = \(\frac{10}{24}\)

as a decimal and rounded to the nearest tenth 

the answer is 0.4
