how many hours will it take him to get to the store

Question

joey plans to jog 6 miles to the store. he can jog at a constant rate of 1/2 of a mile every 1/4 of an hour

Answer 1

(1/2)/(1/4) = 6/x

Since dividing by a fraction is the same as multiplying by its inverse

1/2 * 4/1 = 6/x

4/2 = 6/x

2 = 6/x

2x = 6

x = 3
