Answer 1

Answer:

80%

Step-by-step explanation:

Alicia walks 4 miles in 1 hour and can speed walk 5 miles in 1 hour.

So, the average walking rate of Alicia is 4 miles per hour and the average speed walking rate of Alicia is 5 miles per hour.

Therefore, the percentage of Alicia's average walking rate with respect to Alicia's average speed walking rate is $\frac{4 \times 100}{5} =80$%.

(Answer)

Answer 2

Answer:

The % Alicia speed walking is 125 % of average walking

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

Distance cover by Alicia while walking = 4 miles

Time taken                                               = 1 hour

So, Speed of Alicia while walking = $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Or,                                            S 1  =  $\frac{4 miles}{1 hour}$

I.e                                              S 1  =  4 mph

And

Distance cover by Alicia while speed walk  = 5 miles

Time Taken                                                      = 1 hour

So, Speed of Alicia while speed walking = $\frac{Distance}{Time}$

Or,                                            S 2  =  $\frac{5 miles}{1 hour}$

I.e                                              S 2  =  5 mph

Or,   % Rate = $\frac{5}{4}$ ×100 = 125

Hence The % Alicia speed walking is 125 % of average walking  Answer
