The key is Esther travelled the same distance - x - in both her morning and evening commute.
45(time she took in the morning, or p) = x
30(time she took in the evening, or q) = x
Therefore 45(p) = 30(q), or divide both sides by 5 and get 9(p) = 6(q). I know you can divide it further, but these numbers are small enough and it's not worth the time.
Since the whole trip took an hour, (p + q) = 60min, and so, p = 60-q.
Therefore 9(60-q) = 6q or 540-9q = 6q. So 540 = 15q, which makes q = 36. If q = 36, then by (p+q)=60, p (the time she took in the morning) must equal 24.
45 miles per hour, her speed in the morning, times (24/60) hours, her time, makes 18 miles travelled in the morning. If you check, 30 miles per hour times (36/60) hours also makes 18 miles in the evening.

Answer:
well this is very easy all you have to do is divide 4 by 5 and you will get 4 with a remander of 1 or 0.8 or if this was a real life scenario then you could just take that extra slice and cut it in five ways. hope this helped! can i get brainiest plzz? im only ONE away from getting up to expert!

Step-by-step explanation:
-4x + 3x = 2
-1x = 2
-1x/-1 = 2/-1
x = -2
