Step-by-step explanation:
_____________________________________

We shall solve in miles ("mi.") per hour ("h"); denoted as "mi / h" ; or sometimes, "mph".
______________________________________

Given 26 mi / 4.5 h ; we want to solve for the number of miles (mi) per unit hour (h),
________________________________
The answer is (26/ 4.5) mi / h l
______________________________
26 ÷ 4.5 = 5.7777777777777778→ Round to: 5.778 mi/ h;
→ or; write as: 5 ⁷/₉ mi /h
