Answer:

He was going about 26 miles an hour.

Explanation:

This is a fraction equal to

66 miles ÷ 2.5 hours

We want a unit rate where

1 is in the denominator,

so we divide top and bottom by 2.5

66 miles ÷ 2.5

2.5 hours ÷ 2.5

=

26.4 miles

1 hour

=

26.4 miles

hour

= 26.4 miles per hour
