Answer:
The correct answer in MPH (miles per hour) would be 3.5 or 3 1/2 MPH.
Step-by-step explanation:
7/8 = 0.875
1/4 = 0.25
This is a fraction equal to 0.875 miles ÷ 0.25 hours.
We want a unit rate where 1 is in the denominator, so we divide top and bottom by 0.25.
0.875 miles ÷ 0.25/ 0.25 hours ÷ 0.25
= 3.5 miles/1 hour
= 3.5 miles/ hour
3.5 = 3 1/2
= 3 1/2 miles per hour
Hope this helps!
