Question

Leah walks 13 miles in 6 hours .lee walks 5 miles in 3 hours .Hercules walks 36 miles in 8 hours which Person had the fastest pace

Answer 1

Answer: Hercules has the fastest pace

Explanation:

L=Leah. l=lee. H=Hercules

**Since the speeds are in fractions, make the denominators the same.

L=13/6

l=5/3

l=(5*2)/(3*2)

l=10/6

H=36/8

H=(36*6/8)/(8*6/8)

H=(216/8)/(48/8)

H=27/6

27/6 > 13/6 > 10/6

H>L>l

Hercules has the fastest pace
