When the tortoise raced the hare, the former maintained a constant pace of one mile per hour throughout the race; while the latter, being overconfident, wasted much time and averaged only 3/4 miles per hour for the first half of the course. How fast must the hare run over the second half of the course in order to win?

The tortoise is runing one mile per hour the entire race. The hare is runing 3/4 only the first half. If we multiply by 2 totis =2 miles and hare =1.50 the hare need to run 1/2 or .50 faster to beat the tortis.
