it is 4 miles per hour because 12 miles divided by 3 hours is 4 miles per hour and also 60 miles divided by 15 hours is 4 miles per hour

Answer:

4 miles per hour

Explanation:

Using division would be the easiest way to solve this problem, since we are finding miles "per" hour.

Knowing that a fish is going 12 miles in 3 hours, we can divide these numbers by each other to find how many miles the fish runs in an hour.

12/3

4 mph

60/15

4mph
