Answer: she can run
6\frac54 mile sin 1 hour.

Explanation:

Given : Distance run by Jasmine in
\frac23 of an hour =
4\frac56\text{ miles}=(24+5)/(6)\text{ miles}


=(29)/(6) miles

Distance run by Jasmine in 1 hour =
(29)/(6)*(3)/(2)=(29)/(4) miles.


=6(5)/(4) miles.

Hence, she can run
6\frac54 mile sin 1 hour.
