Q. Bulan rows on a crew team. Her team rows their boat at a split (rate) of 2 min500 m \frac{2 \mathrm{~min}}{500 \mathrm{~m}} .\newlineWhat is Bulan's team's rowing rate in mmin \frac{\mathrm{m}}{\min } ?\newline\squaremmin\frac{\mathrm{m}}{\min }
  1. Reciprocal of given rate: To convert the rate from (2min)/(500m)(2 \, \text{min})/(500 \, \text{m}) to (m)/(min)(\text{m})/(\text{min}), we need to take the reciprocal of the given rate.
  2. New rate calculation: So, the new rate is (500m)/(2min)(500 \, \text{m})/(2 \, \text{min}).
  3. Simplification of rate: Now, we simplify the rate by dividing 500500 by 22.
  4. Final simplified rate: The simplified rate is 250m/min.250\,\text{m/min}.
