1. If Martin climbs 3 1/3 meters in the first one 1/6 hour, then he climbs

[tex]3\dfrac{1}{3}\cdot 6=\dfrac{10}{3}\cdot 6=20[/tex] meters per hour. Then, option A is correct and options C and E are false.

2. If Alexia climbs 17 1/2 in the first 5/6 hour, then she climbs

[tex]17\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot \dfrac{6}{5}=\dfrac{35}{2}\cdot \dfrac{6}{5}=21[/tex] meters per hour and it takes Alexia [tex]\dfrac{1}{21}[/tex] of an hour to climb 1 meter. Then options B and D are correct and option F is false.
