Answer:

The boat would travel 6.75 miles in a 1/2 hour.

Explanation:

If the boat travels 27 miles in 2 hours, you would take 27 and divide it by 2 to find out how many miles it travels in 1 hour. (27/2= 13.5 miles). Then you would take 13.5 miles and divide it by 2 again to find how many miles it traveled in 1/2 an hour. (13.5/2 = 6.75 miles).
