Respuesta :

Answer:

Jan takes a drink 6 times.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided is:

  • Jan takes a drink of water as she completes every 3/4 of a mile.
  • She walks a total of 9/2 miles.

Compute the number of times Jan takes a drink as follows:

[tex]\text{Number of times Jan takes a drink}=\frac{\text{Number of miles walked}}{\text{Interval for a drink}}[/tex]

                                                       [tex]=\frac{9/2}{3/4}\\\\=6[/tex]

Thus, Jan takes a drink 6 times.
