Nunez · Answer 1

First convert 1/12 of an hour to minutes 1 hr = 60 minutes 1/12 x 60 = 5 minutes ratio and proportion 2/5 / 5 = x/60 cross multiply 5x = 24 x = 4 4/5 mi or 4.8 mi

Jaslene Burke · Answer 2

2/5 in 1/12 of an hour

x in 1 hour

So multiply 12 to both fractions

2/5 x 12 in 1/12 x 12 of an hour

We get now:

24/5 in 1 hour

or:

4 4/5 in 1 hour
