Respuesta :
velocity of the boat = 36miles/3 hours
divide denominator and numerator by 6 respectively
6 miles/0.5hrs
thus, the we can say that the boat will travel 6 miles in 0.5 hour
As given,
Distance traveled by a boat in 3 hours is = 36 miles
Distance traveled by the boat in 1 hour = [tex]\frac{36}{3}[/tex] =[tex]12 miles[/tex]
So, distance traveled by boat in 0.5 hours at the same rate =
[tex]\frac{36}{3}\times0.5[/tex] = 6 miles or [tex]12\times0.5=6[/tex] miles
Hence, the boat will travel 6 miles in 0.5 hours.
