Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Distance traveled in [tex]1\frac{4}{5}[/tex] hours = [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex]

Distance traveled in 1 hour = [tex]\frac{3}{10}[/tex] ÷ [tex]1\frac{4}{5}[/tex]

          [tex]=\frac{3}{10}[/tex] ÷ [tex]\frac{9}{5}[/tex]

          [tex]= \frac{3}{10}*\frac{5}{9}\\\\=\frac{1}{2}*\frac{1}{3}\\\\=\frac{1}{6}[/tex]

distance traveled in 3 1/5 hours = [tex]\frac{1}{6}*3\frac{1}{5}[/tex]

 =[tex]=\frac{1}{6}*\frac{8}{5}\\\\=\frac{1}{3}*\frac{4}{5}\\\\=\frac{4}{15}[/tex]
