Answer: 0.1714 miles / hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Distance to the store = 3 miles

Time taken to get to store = 12 hours

Time taken to return = 23 hours

Average speed = 6 miles / 35 hours

Average speed = 0.1714 miles / hour

Brrunno [24]

Answer: 6

Step-by-step explanation:

Here's the complete question:

Leah has 8 4/7 meters of cloth, which she divides equally among her friends. Each friend 10/7 gets meters of cloth. She distributed the cloth to ---- friends.

Total length of the cloth = 8 4/7m

Number of friends = Unknown

Amount of length gotten by each friend= 10/7

The number of friends that she shred the cloth among will be:

= Total length of cloth / Length gotten by each friend

= 8 4/7 ÷ 10/7

= 60/7 ÷ 10/7

= 6/7 × 7/10.

= 60/10

= 6.
