** Ammar hikes 5 11 ​ miles per hour** ; For this case, what we should do is find Ammar's speed.
We have then:
v = t d ​
Where,
d: distance
t: time
Then, on the other hand we have:
1 hour = 60 minutes
Substituting values we have:
v = 1 60 15 ​ 2 4 3 ​ ​
Rewriting we have:
v = 60 75 ​ 4 11 ​ ​
v = 4 5 ​ 4 11 ​ ​
v = 5 11 ​

To find the speed at which Ammar hikes, we calculated the distance he hiked in miles and converted his hiking time into hours. After using the speed formula, we found that Ammar hikes 5 11 ​ or 2.2 miles per hour.
