Sarah is training for a bike race. She rides her bike 5 3/4 miles in 1/3 hour. What is Sarah's rate in miles per hour? Express your answer as mixed number

Rate=17 1/4 miles/hour

Step-by-step explanation:

Rate=Distance/Time, where;

Distance=5 3/4=23/4miles

Time=1/3 hour

Rate = (23/4) : (1/3) = (23/4) * 3=17.25=17 1/4

Mixed number consists of an integer (whole number) and a proper fraction;

In our case Sarah rides at the rate of 17 (integer) and 1/4 (fraction) miles per hour

Rate=17 1/4 miles/hour
