Question

Raul biked a steady speed during his 8-mile ride he finished the ride in 4/5 hour. What is Rauls speed in miles per hour enter the unit rate

Answer 1

To find Raul's speed in miles per hour, we can use the formula:

Speed = Distance / Time

Raul's distance is 8 miles, and his time is 4/5 hour. Let's calculate his speed:

Speed = 8 miles / (4/5 hour)

To divide by a fraction, we can multiply by its reciprocal:

Speed = 8 miles * (5/4 hour)

Simplifying the expression:

Speed = 40 miles / 4 hour

Speed = 10 miles per hour

So, Raul's speed is 10 miles per hour.
