three-fifths over three-eights equals one and three-fifths miles per hour
Step-by-step explanation:
- The martinez family walked three over five of a mile; this means they walked 3/5 of a mile.
- They walked such distance in in three over eight of an hour, this means 3/8 of an hour.
To find the rate in miles per hour, we have to divide 3/5 divided 3/8.
TO make division of fraction, we must invert the second fraction and multiply them:
