Question

Team infinite dimensions canoed 15 3/4 miles in 3 hours. what was the average rate of speed in miles per hour?

Answer 1

mi/h and mph. same thing I believe. I'm from Canada so I don't know what unit works but the ppl were going an average of 5.25miles per hour

Answer 2

Answer: Average speed would be
`5(1)/(4)\ mph`

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Distance traveled by team infinite =
`15(3)/(4)=(63)/(4)\ miles`

Time taken = 3 hours

We need to find "Speed".

As we know the relation between distance, time and speed.

`Speed=(Distance)/(Time)\\\\Speed=(63)/(4* 3)\\\\Speed=(21)/(4)\\\\Speed=5(1)/(4)\ mph`

Hence, Average speed would be
`5(1)/(4)\ mph`
