Respuesta :

2 miles per hour. Multiply both numbers (1/4 and 1/8) by 8 (because 1/8 hour x 8 = 1 hour) to get your number. 1/4 x 8 = 8/4, or 2 miles per hour.

The Speed of person is 2 miles per hour.

What is Speed?

The speed formula can be defined as the rate at which an object covers some distance. Speed can be measured as the distance traveled by a body in a given period of time.

Here, Speed = x miles per hour

          Distance = 1/4 miles

          Time = 1/8 hour

Now, Speed = Distance / Time

           x = [tex]\frac{1}{4} / \frac{1}{8}[/tex]

          x = [tex]\frac{8}{4}[/tex]

          x = 2

Thus, the Speed of person is 2 miles per hour.
