Answer:
mi/hr . min does not equal mi. You must convert 45 minutes to hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question the speed was given in miles per hour while the time was given in minutes. The time should be converted to hrs before one calculate the speed .
Time = 45 minutes
60 minutes = 1 hr
45 minutes = ?
45/60 = 0.75 hr
Time = 0.75 hr
speed = distance/time
distance = speed × time
distance = 7.5 × 0.75
distance = 5.625 miles
