Answer:

3mi/hr , 3 miles per hour or 3mph

Explanation:

so you want to find how manu milesin an hour.

first you need to gind how many miles in jsut 1/8 of the hour

so what we have is for 3/8 of an hour so divide what we have by 3

9/8 divided by 3 = 3/8 of a mile in 1/8 of an hour.

multiple this by 8 to get what equals in 1 hr

3/8*8 = 24/8 simplified to 3.

3 miles per hour
