Answer:

1 hour = 7/18 of the distance between two ports

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

In 3/7 hours distance traveled is 1/6

For finding distance in one hour, divide both sides by 7/3 so that 3/7 would be cancelled out:

3/7 * 7/3 hours = 1/6 * 7/3 distance

By simplifying:

1 hour = 7/18 of the distance between two ports

This means that in one hour 7/18 of the distance is covered between two ports.

i hope it will help you!

If you know what happened in 3/7 of a hour, you can multiply that value by 7/3 and find you what happens in a whole hour. If you prefer, you can visualize this using this proportion:

\dfrac{1}{6}\div \dfrac{3}{7}=x\div 1

Solving for x, we have

x=\dfrac{1}{6}\div\dfrac{3}{7}=\dfrac{1}{6}\cdot\dfrac{7}{3}=\dfrac{7}{18}
