You can apply a rule of three.
If you travel a distance of 45 miles in one hour (equivalent to 60 minutes), then how many minutes (x) will it take 1 mile?

45 miles → 60 min
   1 mile → x

[tex] x=\frac{1 mile*60 min}{45 miles} [/tex] --> [tex]x=\frac{60}{45} min[/tex]

Simplifying the fraction, dividing the numerator and denominator by 15

x=(60/15)/(45/15) min→x=4/3 min =1.333333333 min
approximately 1.33 min

 Answer: It will take 4/3 min or 1.33 min to travel 1 mile
