6 miles an hour or 5 knots

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the answer because 15 divided by 2.5 = 6 and 6 times 2.5 is 15 so the answer to miles per hour is 6 and if you multiply 1.2 by 5 you get 6 why 1.2 because each knot is worth 1.2 miles an hour.

1/4 and 8/3 because:

the reciprocal if 4 is 1/4 because 4 is used as 4/1 and the opposite of that is 1/4. the opposite of 3/8 is 8/3 so that is the answer.
