Sandra hikes 9/10 mile every 30 minutes, or 1/2 hour. How many miles does she hike each hour?

9514 1404 393

  1.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In the first half hour, Sandra hikes 9/10 = 0.9 miles. She hikes that distance again in the second half-hour. After an hour, Sandra has hiked ...

  2 × 0.9 miles = 1.8 miles

__

If you like, you can consider it a "unit rate" problem. To find miles per hour, divide miles by hours:

  (9/10 mi)/(1/2 h) = (9/10)(2/1) mi/h = 9/5 mi/h = 1.8 mi/h

Sandra hikes 9/5 or 1.8 miles in an hour.
