Question

Bob goes on a hike and walks at a pace of 2 1/2 miles per hour. Which rates are equivalent to 2 1/2 miles per hour? Select ALL that apply.

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation: !!DISCLAIMER IM NOT ALWAYS THE SMARTEST BUT IM PRETTY SURE THIS IS RIGHT!

!well what I did. You know that 60 minutes=one hour. So I put 2 & 1/2 over 60.

Make 2 & 1/2 a improper fraction=5/2.

So 5/2 over 60

Then divide. 5/2 divided by 60 ( which is 60/1)

Then leave change flip, meaning leave the 5/2 change the division sign to multiplication, and flip, which you would flip 60/1 to 1/60

So we have 5/2 times 1/60. Multiply across. 5 times 1= 5. 2 times 60=120

So we have 5/120

Now we simplify 120 divided by 5 = 24. And 5 divided by 5 = 1

So 1/24

That’s all I know.. I know it didn’t have the answers but I hoped it help a bit
