Answer:

hope this helps :)

Explanation:

Since we know how far she can walk in 1/5 (one fifth) of an hour, if we multiply this distance by 5, we will find out how far she can walking in 5/5 (five fifths) of an hour, or to be clear: in one hour.

So, 5 x 1/4 miles = 5/4 or 1.25 miles per hour

Jazmeen can walk 1.25 miles in one hour.
