Based on the distance of the race and the distance the athlete has already ran, the fraction is 2/15.
The athlete has run 200m out of a total of 1.5km.
Fraction of race already ran
First thing to do is to convert the kilometers to meters so that the units are the same:
= 1.5 km x 1,000 meters per kilometer
= 1,500 meters
The fraction is therefore:
= Distance ran / Total distance
= 200 / 1,500
= 2 / 15
In conclusion, the athlete has ran 2/15 of the race.
