A horse-fly can travel at a rate of 90 mph. Which proportion could be used to find m, the number miles a horse-fly can travel in 5 minutes?

Answer 1

The proportion that could be used to find m would be:

90 miles / 1 hour = m miles / 5 minutes

This is because we know that the horse-fly can travel at a rate of 90 mph and we want to find out how many miles it can travel in 5 minutes. By setting up a proportion, we can solve for m, the number of miles the horse-fly can travel.
