Question

A person jogs 1/2 miles in 1/12 hours. The person's speed is how many miles per hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

6 miles per hour

Step-by-step explanation:

speed = distance/time

speed = 1/2÷1/12 which is the same as

1/2 x 12/1 = 6

6 miles per hour.

or ou could change the 1/2 to become 0.5

and the 1/12 to become 0.083333333

and divide 0.5 ÷ 0.083333333 = 6.000000024

rounded to one decima place become 6.0

6 miles per hour
