- - Gather the information we know and solve:

4 hrs=26.5 m

Now you are going to divide 26.5 over 4 to get your answer:


(26.5)/(1) =6.625

You get your final answer of: 6.625 miles

There are several information's of immense importance already given in the question. Based on those information's the answer to the question can be easily deduced.
In 4 hours Ashley rode a distance of = 26.5 miles
Then in 1 hour the distance that is ridden by Ashley = (26.5/4) miles
= 6.625 miles
So it can be clearly seen from the above deduction that the distance that has been ridden by Ashley in 1 hour is 6.625 miles. I hope the procedure is clear enough for you to understand. In future you can use this procedure to solve similar kind of problems without requiring any outside help.
