How I find it is: I look to see how many times 5 goes into 17 and I got 5 goes into 17 three times. therefore 3 is my big number. then I notice that there are two left over. then I look at the original numerator which is 5. so the answer is 3 2/5

Answer:

17 1/4mph

Step-by-step explanation:

As you can see, Sarah rides her bike 5 3/4 in 1/3 hours. All you need to do is multiply 5 and 3/4 by 3 since it's thirds. 5x3=15. 3/4x3=9/4. 9/4= 2 1/4. 15+2 1/4= 17 1/4mph.
