speed = distance / time

jack1 · Answer

so distance = 
he ran the quarter-mile track six times
quarter mile = 1/4 miles = 0.25 miles
6 times
so 6 x 0.25 miles = 1.5 miles

jack1 · Answer

time = 15 minutes = 1/4 hours = 0.25 hours
so speed = distance / time
               = 1.5 miles / 0.25 hours
              = 6 miles / hour
