Ellie hikes 1/2 of a mile every 10 minutes. How far does she hike in 1 hour? Answer choices:
3
5
4
6

3miles

Step-by-step explanation:

10 minutes is 1/6 of an hour, so in 1 hour ellie would hike 1/2*6=3miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are various ways in which we can solve this problem.

If we're told that Ellie can hike 1/2 mile in 10 minutes, then multiplying both sides of "1/2 mile = 10 minutes" by 6 yields 3 miles in 60 minutes.

Alternatively:  "1/2 mile = 10 minutes" becomes "1 mile in 20 minutes" by the same approach.  Then, multiplying both sides by 3 yields "3 miles in 60 minutes," or "3 miles in 1 hour."
