Answer 1

Answer:

First blank from left in step 1 = $\frac{16}{5}$

Second blank in step 1 = 14.4

First blank from left in step 2 = 14.4

second blank from left in step 2 = $\frac{18}{5}$

third blank in step 2 = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1 :-

4.5h × $\frac{16}{5}$ miles per hour = 14.4 miles

STEP 2 :-

As the total miles will be same, so;

14.4 miles ÷ $\frac{18}{5}$ miles per hour = 4 hour
