You can put this solution on YOUR website!
If your rate is 2 1/2 mi/hr, then that is
\n" ); document.write( "the same as 5 mi in 2 hrs, so your rate
\n" ); document.write( "is: \"+5%2F2+\" mi/hr
\n" ); document.write( "-----------------
\n" ); document.write( "\"+d+=+r%2At+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7%2F8+=+%285%2F2%29%2At+\"
\n" ); document.write( "where \"+t+\" is in hours
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply both sides by \"+8+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+7+=+20t+\"
\n" ); document.write( "\"+t+=+7%2F20+\" hrs
\n" ); document.write( "------------------
\n" ); document.write( "Multiply this result by \"+60+\"
\n" ); document.write( "to get answer in terms of minutes
\n" ); document.write( "\"+%28+7%2F20+%29%2A60+=+21+\" minutes
