Answer:

1.25 hours

Explanation:

Benjamin rode tghe train for 45 minutes. Then it took him another 30 minutes to walk to his friend's house. How many hours did he spend riding and walking to his friend's house?

The number of hours he spent riding and walking to his friends house is calculated as:

45 minutes + 30 minutes

= 75 minutes

Converting this to hours

60 minutes = 1 hour

75 minutes = x

Cross Multiply

60 × x = 75 × 1

x = 75/60

x = 1.25 hours
