Caitlin travels 4.5 miles at 11/3 hours.

So his rate of travel will be


(4.5)/((11)/(3))=1.23

His rate is 1.23 mile/hour

Again Martin travels 4.25 miles at 11/5 hours

So his rate will be


(4.25)/((11)/(5))=1.93

Hence martins rate is 1.93 miles/hour.

SO Martin travels at a greater rate than Caitlin.
