d = 2 3/4
t = 1 hour 15 minutes
r = ????
Calculations
==========
You need to convert the 15 minutes to hours.
1 hour = 60 minutes
x hour = 15 minutes
1/60 = x/15
x = 15/60
x = 0.25 hours
so the time = 1 hours + 0.25 hours
t = 1.25 hours
Now you need to do something with the distance.
3/4 mile = 0.75 of a mile
So the distance = 2 + 0.75 = 2.75 miles
Now you are ready for the answer.
d = r * t you are looking for r
2.75 = r * 1.25
r = 2.75/1.25
r = 2.2 miles / hour
Note you could do this with fractions.
2 3/4 = 11/4
1 1/4 = 5/4
r = 11/4 // 5/4 =11/5 = 2 1/5 which is the same thing as 2.2. If your calculator can handle fractions (those kind of calculators cost about 10 dollars in Canada. It should be 8 in the US) that might be the way to do this problem.
Answer:
107/33
Step-by-step explanation:
107/33 is the rational number equivalent to 3 point 24 with a bar over 24.
The distance is 54 km if the speed and time are 72 km/h and 45 minutes respectively.
<h3>What is distance?</h3>
Distance is a numerical representation of the distance between two items or locations. Distance refers to a physical length or an approximation based on other physics or common usage considerations.
We have:
Speed = 72 km/h
time = 45 mins = 45/60 = 0.75 hours
We know,
Distance = Speed×time
Distance = 72(km/h)×0.75(h)
Distance = 54 km
Thus, the distance is 54 km if the speed and time are 72 km/h and 45 minutes respectively.

Tangent always meets radius at 90° angle.
Angle ABC = 90° so Pythagoras' theorem applies.
r² + 4² = (r+2)²
r² + 16 = r² + 4r + 4
12 = 4r
r = 3
