Answer:

The regular speed is 2 times greater than the reduced speed.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information regarding the regular elevator speed was missing.

The regular elevator speed is 10 miles per hour, if the reduced speed for strong winds is 5 miles per hour, the ratio between those speeds is:

[tex]r=\frac{10}{5} \\r=2[/tex]

The regular speed is 2 times greater than the reduced speed.
