This question involves the concepts of average speed, distance, and time.

The average speed of the family is "2.5 mi/hr".

AVERAGE SPEED

The average speed is defined as the ratio of the total distance covered with the total time taken to cover it.

[tex]v=\frac{s}{t}[/tex]

where,

  • s = distance covered = 2.5 miles
  • t = total time taken = 1 hour
  • v = average speed = ?

Therefore,

[tex]v=\frac{2.5\ mi}{1\ hr}[/tex]

v = 2.5 mi/hr
