Question

Daisy walked two-fifths of a mile in one-fifth of an hour. Walking at the same pace, how far will Daisy walk in 1 hour?​

Answer 1

Answer:

2 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 mile = 1/5 hour

x mile(s) = 1 hour

Cross multiplying.

x · 1/5 = 2/5 · 1

x/5 = 2/5

Multiplying both sides by 5.

x = 10/5

x = 2

Daisy will walk 2 miles in 1 hour.

Answer 2

Answer:

$\Huge \boxed{\mathrm{2 \ miles}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

2/5 mile = 1/5 hour

x mile(s) = 1 hour

Cross multiplying.

x · 1/5 = 2/5 · 1

x/5 = 2/5

Multiplying both sides by 5.

x = 10/5

x = 2

Daisy will walk 2 miles in 1 hour.
