Answer 2

Answer: 4.5 minutes.

Explanation:

1. You have the following information given in the problem above:

- Erica runs
`(1)/(6)km` in a minute.

- The school is
`(3)/(4)km` away from her home.

2. Therefore, to solve the exercise you must multiply
`(3)/(4)km=0.75km` by 1 minute and divide this by
`(1)/(6)km=0.166km`, as following:

`x=((0.75km)(1min))/((0.166km))\\x=4.5min`

3. Therefore, the result is 4.5 minutes.
