Ezra jogged 5 kilometers in 5/12 of an hour. How fast was he jogging?
Simplify your answer and write it as a proper fraction, mixed number, or whole number.

Answer

To find the speed, divide the distance by the time:

Speed = Distance / Time = 5 km / (5/12) hours

To divide by a fraction, multiply by its reciprocal:

Speed = 5 km * (12/5) = 12 km/h

Ezra was jogging at 12 kilometers per hour.
