Hi there!
We know that the snail lives 1 x 1/2 feet in 3 x 3/4 hours. First you have to simplify or solve the expressions. 1 x 1/2 is equal to 1/2 and 3 x 3/4 is 9/4 or 2.25 in decimal form.
You need to divide 2.25 by 1/2 or 0.5 which is 4.5.
So the snail moves 4.5 or 9/2 feet per hour.
Hope this helps !
