They both continue running at a constant rate.
WIN
How far apart will they be after 3/4 of an hour?

0.1875 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to make the math easier for calculating the distance, the values have to be calculated to whole hours.

1.75*2 = 3.5

2.5 * 3 = 7.5, 7.5/2 = 3.75

Now, I divide the whole hours into quarters

3.5/4 = 0.875

3.75/4 = 0.9375

Multiply both values by 3 to get the distance after 3/4 of an hour

0.875 = 2.625

0.9375 = 2.8125

remove the smaller value from the larger value

2.8125 - 2.625 = 0.1875

I might have used a more over-complicated method than what you might have been taught, but it should be just as efficient. Good luck with your assignment!
