Question

UpStudy AI · Accepted Answer

To determine Paige's speed in miles per minute, you can use the formula for speed:

$$
\text{Speed} = \frac{\text{Distance}}{\text{Time}}
$$

**Given:**
- **Distance** = $$ \frac{2}{3} $$ miles
- **Time** = 16 minutes

**Calculation:**

$$
\text{Speed} = \frac{\frac{2}{3} \text{ miles}}{16 \text{ minutes}} = \frac{2}{3} \div 16
$$

Dividing by 16 is the same as multiplying by $$ \frac{1}{16} $$:

$$
\frac{2}{3} \div 16 = \frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{16} = \frac{2 \times 1}{3 \times 16} = \frac{2}{48}
$$

Simplify the fraction by dividing both the numerator and the denominator by 2:

$$
\frac{2}{48} = \frac{1}{24}
$$

**Answer:**
Paige's speed is $$ \frac{1}{24} $$ miles per minute.
Paige's speed is $$ \frac{1}{24} $$ miles per minute.
