Laura decides to walk to her job. she walks 1 1/2 miles in 3/5 hour. What is Laura's unit rate?

1 4/5 is ur answer because if she need 1 more just round it

To find the rate in miles per hour, divide the miles by the hours.

(1 1/2 miles) / (3/5 hour) =

= 3/2 miles * (5/3 hour)

= 5/2 mph

= 2 1/2 mph

Her walking rate is 2 1/2 mph.

(4 1/2 miles) / (2 1/2 mph) =

= 9/2 miles / (5/2 mph)

= 9/2 * 2/5 hours

= 9/5 hours

= 1 4/5 hours

From 9:00 a. m. to 11 a. m., she has 2 hours, but she only needs 1 4/5 hours to walk, so she will make it to work on time.
