Question

if a dog walks 14/15 miles in 7/30 hours what is the rate in miles per hour?

Answer 1

I believe the dog is walking at a rate of 4 miles per hour. The formula used to calculate speed is:
                    
                 Distance
Speed = -----------------
                   Time 

Convert the given fractions to decimals:


                   0.933
Speed = --------------- = 4 Mph
                   0.233
