It takes Mara 50 minutes to walk to her friend's house 1 2/3-miles away. What is her walking pace in miles per hour?
To find her walking pace in 'miles per hour', we need to divide the distance (in miles) by the time (in hours)

To find Mara's walking pace in miles per hour, we use the formula:
[ \text{Walking pace} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}} ]
Given that Mara walks 1 2/3 miles in 50 minutes, we convert the time to hours:
[ 50 \text{ minutes} = \frac{50}{60} \text{ hours} = \frac{5}{6} \text{ hours} ]
Now, we plug the values into the formula:
[ \text{Walking pace} = \frac{1\frac{2}{3}}{\frac{5}{6}} ]
[ \text{Walking pace} = \frac{5}{3} \times \frac{6}{5} ]
[ \text{Walking pace} = \frac{30}{15} = 2 \text{ miles per hour} ]
Mara's walking pace is 2 miles per hour.
