31.25 weeks

Explanation:

You want to know how many weeks it took to construct 93.75 km of road at the rate of 3 km/week.

Time

The relation between time, rate, and quantity is ...

time = quantity/rate

time = (93.75 km)/(3 km/wk) = (93.75/3) wk = 31.25 wk

It took the crew 31.25 weeks to build 93.75 km of road.
