Answer:

  8 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Let t represent the time for one mile. We are told the ratio of minutes to miles is constant, so we have the proportion ...

  time / distance = t/(1 mi) = (208 min)/(26 mi)

Multiplying both sides of the equation by (1 mi), we have ...

  t = (208/26) min = 8 min

Geri's average pace was 8 minutes to run 1 mile.
