Please Help me with this question!! I have a time limit

The Garcia family drives 3/4 of the distance to their grandparent's house
in 3/4 hour.

How many hours will it take
to drive to their grandparent's house at the same rate?

a= 1
b=9/16
c=1 and 7/9

The Answer is A: 1 hour

Explanation:

since they can drive 3/4 the distance in 3/4 hours, they can also drive 1/2 the distance in 1/2 hours and so on. If they want to visit the grandparent's house, they need to drive 4/4 the distance which is equivalent to 1 so it will take 1 hour for them to go to the house at the same rate.

A Tip From Me To You:

sometimes the question tries to trick you to make you overthink it so don't overthink it, try to just solve it simply.

Have a great day! <3

Answer:

a=1

Explanation:

because 3/4 hour is 45 minute and it takes 4/4 distance to their grandparents hous ein 4/4 hour so 45÷3=15, 15×4=60 which is 1hour
