Since you want to know the answer in miles per min, you need to set up a ratio.

OpenStudy (meilendurcer):

ok

3.5 miles/22.25 min = ?

OpenStudy (meilendurcer):

6.35

OpenStudy (anonymous):

No, you are dividing 3.5 by 22.25

OpenStudy (meilendurcer):

0.1 or 0.15?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

Nope. \[3.5miles/22.25\min\] \[=0.1573033708 miles/ \min\] Which is 14/89
