Answer:

1.67miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed of the penguin = Distance/Time taken

Given

Distance = 1/3 mile

Time = 1/5 hour

Substitute the given data into the speed formula;

Speed = (1/3)/(1/5)

Speed = 1/3 * 5/1

Speed = 5/3

Speed = 1.67miles/hour

Hence the penguin speed in mi/hr is 1.67mi/hr
