15 times 3 is 45. 15+15+15=45 and since that's 3 15's, 15 times 3=45
To divide by a fraction, multiply by the reciprocal of that fraction.
1/3 • 5/1 or 1/3 • 5
Calculate the product straight across.
1/3 • 5/1 = 5/3

The y axis intercepts the linear function at positive 3
The tail of the train starts one mile from the mouth of the tunnel and it must travel that distance plus the length of the tunnel in 3 minutes.
Let t = tunnel length
t + 1 = distance the tail must travel in 3 minutes.
3 minutes = 1/20 hr
(t+1) miles / 60 m/hr = 1/20 hr
t + 1 = 60/20
t+1 = 3
Subtract 1 from each side:
t = 2
The tunnel is 2 miles long.
