Michelle walks at a speed of 3/5mile per
hour.For exercise, she wants to walk to
the park, which is 2 V4 miles away. How
long will it take Michelle to walk to the
park?

Respuesta :

Answer:

6 hours 40 minutes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Speed =  Total distance covered/ Total time

Speed of Michelle = 3/5 miles per hour

Total distance travelled by michelle = [tex]2\sqrt{4} =2\times 2= 4\ miles[/tex]  

Total time taken by michelle to walk the park = Total distance travelled/speed

Total time taken by michelle to walk the park = [tex]\frac{4}{3/5} =\frac{4\times 5}{3} =\frac{20}{3} =6\frac{2}{3} hours[/tex]

Now, 2/3 hours = [tex]\frac{2}{3} \times 60 =40\ minutes[/tex] (1 hour = 60 minutes)

Total times taken to walk to the park = 6 hours 40 minutes.
