Respuesta :

Assuming she can only walk 2/3 of a mile in 7/10 we will find the solution.
We want to find the mile per hour rate (mi/hr).
That is 2/3 divided by 7/10
Which is 2/3 times 10/7
Numerator is 20
Denominator is 21
So 20/21 miles per hour. .95238009…
Convert each answer (flipping the second fraction since it is division)
5/7 times 4/3 is 20/21
7/10 times 3/2 is 21/20
10/3 divided by 1.5 hours which is 3/2.
So 10/3 times 2/3 is 20/9
32/21 divided by 1 3/5 hours which is 5/5 plus 3/5 (add to get 8/5)
So 32/21 times 5/8 is 160/168
5/3 times 10/9 is 50/27
In order of answers
20/21
21/20
20/9
160/168
50/27
Original was 20/21 which is less than 1 (21/21)
So yes to 20/21
So no to 21/20, 20/9, 50/27
To see if 160/168 works simplify.
160/168 gives 80/84 gives 40/42 gives 20/21 when dividing by 2.
So 160/168 works.

So yes to
5/7 mile in 3/4 of an hour
32/21 miles in 1 3/5 hours

So no to
7/10 mile in 2/3 of an hour
10/3 miles in 1 1/2 hours
5/3 miles in 1 9/10 hours
