As worded, the question is Gibberish.
If I see similar nonsense in the future, such posts will be deleted.

My comment regarding @greenestamps comment.
Be sure that I will delete such posts in the future, as soon as I see them.
@greenestamps, I read SO MANY articles and books in English, related to Math and Engineering, that the ratio
to what you read will be somewhere 10 : 1,
and these articles and books taught me to distinct true English from gibberish.
So, I think I do not need your advocacy - - - and I did not ask about it.
//////////////////
To the autor of this post - For your personal attention.
The new month started, and I observe today a huge flow of nonsensical posts, bringing gibberish.
I will collect the links to such nonsensical posts, and if I will see that the flow of nonsense is continuing,
then I will write to the managers of this project
asking then to REMOVE the autors of these posts from their positions and REPLACE them
for their inability to provide a correct input.
You are warned.

You need to forgive tutor @ikleyn -- English is not her native language, so sometimes she doesn't read it very well....
Her average walking rate is 4mph; her average speed walking rate is 5mph. The question asks what percentage 4mph is of 5mph.
4/5 = 0.80, converted to a percent is 80%.
ANSWER: Her average walking rate is 80% of her speed walking rate.
