Question

A horse travels 3 1/4 miles in 1/4 hour. what is the horses speed in miles per hour?

Answer 1

`\begin{gathered} \text{speed}=\frac{dis\tan ce}{\text{time }} \\ dis\tan ce=3(1)/(4)=(13)/(4) \\ \text{time}=(1)/(4) \\ \text{speed}=((13)/(4))/((1)/(4)) \\ \text{speed}=(13)/(4)*(4)/(1) \\ \text{speed}=13milesperhr^{} \end{gathered}`
