How much time will Alex need to walk to his school, which is 2 1/4 miles away from his house, if he would walk with the speed of 3 mph?

Respuesta :

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no unit on this 3 3/4 figure, so my assumption here is that velocity is given in furlongs per fortnight.

A furlong is one eighth of a mile, so Alex is walking 18 furlongs.

18 furlongs / 3.75 furlongs per fortnight gives us 4.8 fortnights. A fortnight is 2 weeks, so this figure comes to 67 days, 4 hours, and 48 minutes, if Alex does not stop for rest.
