Question

Frodo ran 2 1/5 miles in 7/12 of an hour. How many miles can Frodo run in one hour?

Answer 1

Answer:

$\frac{132}{35}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In $\frac{7}{12}$ of an hour, Frodo ran $2\frac{1}{5}$ miles

                                         = $\frac{11}{5}$

So,

Multiplying both sides by $\frac{12}{7}$ , we get,

In $\frac{7}{12}*\frac{12}{7}$ hour, Frodo ran $\frac{11}{5}*\frac{12}{7}$

                                         = $\frac{132}{35}$ miles
