If it takes him a total of 6 hours to walk the 15.5 miles, what is his
average time per day?
minutes per day.

Answer 1

Average time per day = 1.2 hours per day
Average time per day = 72 minutes per day

Explanation:

To find Clarence's average time per day, we need to divide the total time he takes to walk the 15.5 miles by the number of days he walks, which is five.

Let's calculate his average time per day:

Average time per day = Total time / Number of days

Since Clarence takes a total of 6 hours to walk the 15.5 miles, we'll divide 6 by 5 to find his average time per day:

Average time per day = 6 hours / 5

Average time per day = 1.2 hours per day

To convert hours to minutes, we'll multiply the average time per day by 60:

Average time per day = 1.2 hours * 60 minutes

Average time per day = 72 minutes per day

Therefore, Clarence's average time per day is 72 minutes.
