To find Juanita's average speed during her walk in the park, we divide the total distance she walked by the total time it took her.
Yes, we know that she walked a distance of 4 miles.
Juanita's walking time was 1 1/3 hours. As a mixed number, 1 1/3 may be tricky to work with, so we'll convert this into an improper fraction. By multiplying the whole number part (1) by the denominator of the fraction part (3) and then adding the numerator of the fraction part (1), we obtain 3 + 1 = 4. Thus, 1 1/3 equals 4/3 when written as an improper fraction.
Now that we have both her distance and time suitable for calculation, we can proceed to find average speed.
So, Average speed equals Distance (miles) divided by Time (hours).
Plug in the values we have:
Average speed = 4 miles ÷ 4/3 hours.
When we divide by a fraction, it is the same as multiplying by its reciprocal. The reciprocal of 4/3 is 3/4. So the equation becomes:
Average speed = 4 miles * 3/4 hours
Multiplying this out, we find that Juanita's average speed was 3 miles per hour during her walk in the park.
