To calculate James's speed in miles per hour, we need to divide the total distance he ran by the total time it took him to run.
Total distance run = 4 2/3 miles = 14/3 miles
Total time taken = 3/4 hours
Speed = Total distance / Total time
Speed = (14/3 miles) / (3/4 hours)
Speed = (14/3) / (3/4)
Speed = (14/3) * (4/3)
Speed = 56/9 miles per hour
So, James's speed is approximately 6.22 miles per hour.
