Answer:

Rate or speed=3 Miles per hour

Explanation:

Brad walked 2.5 miles in 5/6 of an hour.

Distance covered by Brad = 2.5 miles

Distance covered by Brad= 2 1/2 miles

Distance covered by Brad= 5/2 miles

Time taken to cover the distance = 5/6 of an hour

His rate of walking or how fast he walks is determined by the formula

Rate or speed= distance/time

Rate or speed=( 5/2)/(5/6)

Rate or speed= (5/2)*(6/5)

Rate or speed=6/2

Rate or speed=3 Miles per hour
