Meg skateboards 1/4 of a mile in 1/2 of an hour. At this rate, how far will she skateboard in an hour?

Respuesta :

She will travel half a mile.

Answer:

Meg cover [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of a mile by skateboard in an hour.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Meg skateboards [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of a mile in [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of an hour.

We have to find how much distance she covered by skateboard in an hour.

Unitary method is a method in which we first find the value of a unit and then multiply the desired quantity with unit value.

Distance covered by  Meg in [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] hour = [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] of a miles.

so, distance covered in 1 hour is = [tex]\frac{1}{4}\times 2=\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of a mile.

Thus, Meg cover [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] of a mile by skateboard in an hour.
