SnapAndSolve AI · Accepted Answer

To find Kendrick's walking speed in miles per hour, divide the distance by the time:

Speed = Distance / Time = (5/12) / (1/2)

To divide fractions, multiply by the reciprocal:

Speed = (5/12) * (2/1) = 10/12

Simplify the fraction:

10/12 = 5/6

Therefore, Kendrick walked 5/6 miles per hour.
