Answer:

Travels 4.25 miles in thirty minutes

Explanation:

In order to find the answer to this question you need to first find how many miles the boat travels in a hour and then divide it once more to find how many miles it traveled in half a hour.


17/2


`7/2=8.5


2=17


1=8.5


8.5/2=4.25


=4.25

Hope this helps.
