Answer:

77.78 mph

Explanation:

[1] So we know that someone is driving 350 miles and it takes / took them 4 1/2 hours. I am going to change 4 1/2 to 4.5 for the sake of making it easier.

[2] Miles per hour, is, as it says, miles per hour. Aka,
(miles)/(hour) (your time is almost always on the bottom / the y)

[3] So, that being said, to solve you will but 350 over 4.5 like this:
(350)/(4.5) which calcuates to arounddd 77.78!

(I hope this is correct, I was slightly confused by the wording. Have a nice day!)
