Question

What is the average walking rate in miles per hour if the distance(miles)=0.5. And the Time (min)= 12

Answer 1

So in order for us to know the average walking rate in miles per hour, we have to convert 12 minutes to hours first. So 12 minutes is 0.2 hours. So the rate is 0.5 miles in 0.2 hours. But since the question is the rate per hour, so the answer would be 2.5 miles/hour. Hope this answers your question.
