2 1/4 miles => 1 week

1 mile => 1 ÷ 9/4

( 9/4 is an improper fraction of 2 1/4 )

12 1/2 miles => ( 1 ÷ 9/4 ) × 25/2

= 50/9

= 5 5/9 weeks

( 25/2 is an improper fraction of 12 1/2 )

Therefore, it will take 5 5/9 weeks for the company to replace the stretch of road.

( you can round it off to 6 weeks if the qn specify to give to the nearest whole number )
