PLS HELP ASAP

Answer 1

15/8 Hours

Explanation:

To start, I would find see how long it takes to walk a mile.

1/3 · 3 = 1

1/4 · 3 = 3/4

So we now know that walking one mile takes 45 minutes. Next, I multiplied 1 mile by 2.5 and repeated the same process with the time.

3/4 · 5/2 = 15/8

Therefore, it takes 15/8 hours to walk 2.5 miles.
