1 And 3/4 miles is the answer.
5/8
It is 5/8 miles!
5/8 or 0.625 miles - which is approx 1.06 kilometres.
To form a 4-person relay team from 8 track runners, we first choose 4 runners from the 8, which can be done in ( \binom{8}{4} = 70 ) ways. Then, we can arrange these 4 runners in ( 4! = 24 ) different ways. Therefore, the total number of arrangements is ( 70 \times 24 = 1680 ). Thus, there are 1,680 ways to arrange 8 track runners on a 4-person relay team.
As a relay, each person would run 5/8 of a mile.
Each runner runs five eigths of a mile
9x8x7x6 = 3024.
There are four runners per team who compete in a relay. However, teams always have alternates (back ups) in case of an injury or drop out.
