Question

Addison walked 6 miles in 4 hours what was her walking rate in hours per mile

Answer 1

Answer: 0.66 hours per mile

Explanation:

You know that in 4 hours Addison walked 6 miles.

Now, you need to calculate the amount of hours she walked in 1 mile.

Let be "x" the amount of hours she walked in 1 mile.

Then, to calculate the value of "x" you need to multiply 1 mile by 4 hours and divide by 6 miles:

`x=((1mile)(4hours))/(6miles)\\\\x=(2)/(3)\ hours`

`x`≈
`0.66\ hours`

Therefore, her walking rate in hours per mile was:

0.66 hours per mile
