Janice walks a total of 7/8 hour. She walks at a rate of 1 mile every 1/4

hour. How many miles did she walk? (1 point)

1 answer

To find the number of miles Janice walked, we can divide the total time she walked by the rate at which she walks.

Janice walks at a rate of 1 mile every 1/4 hour, so in 1 hour, she can walk:

1 mile / (1/4 hour) = 4 miles

Given that Janice walks a total of 7/8 hour, we can multiply this fraction by the number of miles Janice can walk in 1 hour:

4 miles/hour * (7/8 hour) = 28/8 miles = <<4=4>>4 miles

Therefore, Janice walked 4 miles.
