Question

Glenn walked from 6:45 a.m. to 8:15 a.m. He walked a distance of 5+ miles. What was Glenn's average walking rate?

Answer 1

3 1/2 (miles=5 1/4)

Explanation:

6:45 a.m. - 8:15 a.m. = 1 hour 30 mins = 1 5/10

5 1/4 / 1 5/10 = 3 1 /2

Answer 2

Answer: 3.333 + miles per hour

Explanation:

Distance walked = 5+ miles

Time taken to cover distance = (8:15 am - 6:45am) = 1 hour 30 minutes = 1.5 hours

Average walking rate = (total distance walked / total time taken)

Average walking rate = (5 + miles / 1.5 hours)

Average walking rate = 3.333 + miles per hour
