Answer 1

a)
`(5)/(6)`

b) 18

Explanation:

The unit rate is
`(5)/(18)`.

This means that in 1 hour, you will travel
`(5)/(18)` of a mile.

distance = rate x time

d =
`(5)/(18)` x 3

d =
`(5)/(18)`
`((3)/(1))`

d =
`(15)/(18)` Divide the numerator and denominator by 3 to simplify.

d =
`(15)/(18)` ÷
`(3)/(3)` =
`(5)/(6)`

d = rate x time

5 =
`(5)/(18)`t Multiply both sides by
`(18)/(5)`

`(18)/(5)`
`((5)/(1))` =
`(18)/(5)`
`((18)/(5))`t

18 = t
