Answer:
1.97 hours to land in New York
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that the number of hours it takes to complete the flight is: 5 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] hours
This is the same as [tex]5 + \frac{1}{4} = 5.25\ hours[/tex]
If we have traveled [tex]\frac{5}{8}[/tex] of the way, then [tex]\frac{3}{8}[/tex] more of the way to get to New York is missing, therefore the number of hours remaining is:
[tex]\frac{3}{8}*5.25\ hours = 1.97\ hours[/tex]
1.97 hours to land in New York
