To find the amount of time, take the distance and divide by the rate. The answer will be in hours.
Notice that the distance to your drandparents' home is less than 4 miles, so it will take less than one hour.
3.67 miles / 4 miles/hour = 0.9175 hours
To change this into minutes, multiply by 60, the number of minutes in one hour:
0.9175 hours x 60 minutes/hour = 55.05 minutes, which rounds to 55 minutes.
If you are interest in numbers, you might like to read the following:
2/3 = .6666666... which rounds to .67
So 3.67 miles might actually mean 3 2/3 miles.
If it does: (3 + 2/3) / 4 x 60 = exactly 55 minutes
