To find their average miles per hour we can divide the total miles by the hour used:
4 2/3 ÷ 1 2/3
=4x3+2/3 ÷ 1x3+2/3
=14/3 ÷ 5/3
In division, when we switch the place of numerator and denominator, we can change it to multiplication which makes the calculation easier as we can factorize the numbers.
=14/3 x 3/5
Factorize 3 in both amounts:
=14/1 x 5/1
=14/5
=2.8 miles/hour
Therefore their average speed is 2.8 miles/hour.
Hope it helps!
Answer:
A rational number is a number that can be represented a/b where a and b are integers and b is not equal to 0.
Find the common denominator.

Simplify.
Check the answer(s) to make sure there isn't an extraneous solution.
The left side can be written as a square. We can take the square root, then subtract 1.
... (x +1)² = 17
... x +1 = ±√17
... x = -1 ±√17
