Answer:

8/3 miles an hour

Explanation:

Because you can travel 2/3 in 1/4 (or 0.25) of an hour, that means you can travel 4 times that distance in 1 hour, assuming the velocity is constant.

To find this then, we simply multiply 2/3 by 4 (2/3*4/1) to get our final answer of 8/3 miles an hour.

Answer:

8/3

Explanation:

To find how many miles are in one hour, we need to scale up the distance covered in 1/4 hour to the distance covered in 1 hour.

We can start by finding the distance covered in 1 hour:

2/3 mile in 1/4 hour = (2/3) ÷ (1/4) = 8/3 miles in 1 hour

Therefore, the ball covers 8/3 miles in one hour.
