Respuesta :

Answer:

Sara has the fastest rate

Step-by-step explanation:

First we have to use the formula R*T=D.

For Sara, we have r*1/8=1/2

This means r=4 after you divide 1/2 by 1/8

For Ben, we can use the same formula

We will get r*1/6=1/3

After dividing, we can conclude that Bens rate is 2mph whereas Saras rate is 4mph. This means Sara's faster
