Question

Jen walked 4/5 mile in 20 minutes and kamee has walked 5/6 mile in 30 minutes. Find their speeds in mph

Answer 1

Jen's speed is 2 2/5 mph

Kamee's speed is 1 2/3 mph

Explanation:

For Jen

20minutes is 1/3 of 60minutes(1Hour)

4/5 + 4/5 + 4/5 = 12/5 or 2 2/5miles per hour

For Kamee

30minutes is 1/2 of 60minutes

5/6 + 5/6 = 10/6 or 1 2/3 miles per hour

Answer 2

To find their speeds in miles per hour (mph), we can use the formula:

Speed = Distance / Time

For Jen:
Distance = 4/5 miles
