    Step-by-step explanation:

    Time taken by Pam to reach to beach = 4 1/4 = 17/4 hour

    Time taken by Jim to reach beach = half the time taken by Pam

    = 1/2 x 17/4 = 17/8 = 2.125 hour

    Answer: The time it takes Jim to drive to the beach is 2 1/8 hours.

    Step-by-step explanation:

    The amount of time that it takes Pam to drive to the beach is 4 1/4 hours. Converting 4 1/4 hours into improper fraction, it becomes 17/4 hours

    Jim can drive to the beach in 1/2 of the times it takes Pam. This means that the time it takes Jim to drive to the beach would be

    1/2 * 17/4 = 17/8 hours.

    Converting 17/8 hours to mixed fraction, it becomes 2 1/8 hours
