Diana is going camping with her family. Their campsite is 7/8 miles away. They walk at a steady speed of 2 1/2 mi/h. How many minutes will it take them to get to the campsite

21 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the formula to calculate the time expressed as;

Speed = Distance/Time

Given:

Distance = 7/8 miles

Speed = 2 1/2 mi/hr

Required

Time in minutes

Substitute the given values into the formula;

Recall that:

S = D/T

T = D/S

Time = 7/8 ÷ 2 1/2

Time = 7/8 ÷ 5/2

Time = 7/8 * 2/5

Time = 7/4 * 1/5

Time = 7/20 hour

Since 1 hour = 60 minutes

7/20 hour = (7/20 * 60)minutes

7/20 hour = 7 * 3

7/20 hour = 21 minutes

Therefore it will take them 21 minutes to get to the campsite
