Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
to find the unit rate, which is what we are looking for, we have to divide the number of miles by the number of hours. Specifically:
[tex]\frac{\frac{1}{2} }{\frac{1}{3} }[/tex] and to work this out, we bring up the bottom fraction and flip it to multiply, giving us:
[tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] × [tex]\frac{3}{1}[/tex] which is [tex]\frac{3}{2}[/tex] miles per hour (which is the same thing as walking a mile and a half every hour). The choice you're looking for is the one that reflects 3/2 miles per hour. (I can't see which choice it is; they're too small!)
