Question

Annie can walk 1/2 of a mile in 1/4 of an hour. How many miles can she walk in 2 1/2 hours if she walks at the same constant speed?​

Answer 1

Answer:

Sally will walk 2 miles in 1 hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

 (1/2 mile) in (1/4 hour)

  (1/2 mile) / (1/4 hour)

  (1/2) / (1/4)  miles/hour

  (1/2) * (4/1)  miles/hour

      2 miles/hour

      2 miles per hour

 

That means that, at that rate, Sally will walk 2 miles in 1 hour.

Answer 2

Answer:

5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

As speed is constant distance is directly proportional to time means as time increases distance also increase

in 1/4 hour 1/2 mile is covered

in 2 1/2 hours = 10× 1/4 hours 1/2 × 10 miles is covered

= 5 miles is covered
