Answer:

1.80 hours or 1 hour and 48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Jerry = 3 miles every hour

Jerry took 3 hours to climb the hill.

It is safe to say that he traveled 3 miles every hour for 3 hours so he traveled 3 x 3 = 9 miles in all.

Jim walks at a speed of 5 miles an hour.

Question : How many hours would it take to travel 9 miles

9/5 = 1 4/5 of an hour

1 4/5 of an hour 1 hour 48 minutes
