ALM not BLM ‏‏‎ ‎‏‏‎ ‎

Answer 2

Answer: 3.6 mph

Explanation:

1. Divide both numbers by 3.5 to get 3.6 miles per hour

That's the only step since they give you that much.

More specifically though, we could create an equation.

`12.6=3.5x` where x is the mph.

Solve the equation by dividing both sides by 3.5 and get the same answer.
