Luis rides his bicycle 3/4 mile in 15 minutes, or 1/4 hour, along the bike trail. Assuming he rides at a constant rate, what is his speed, in miles per hour?​

Answer: 3

This is because 15 times 4 equals 60 and that is equal to 1 hour, well when your multiplying fractions what you do to the bottom you have to do to the top so multiply 3 times 4 thats 12 and now you have 12/4 and that is equal to 3.
