    a) 375 mph

    b) 6.25 mi/min

    c) 0.16 min/mi

    Step-by-step explanation:

    To find miles per hour, divide miles by hours:

    a) (1875 mi) / (5 h) = 375 mi/h

    __

    b) You have hours in the denominator, and you want minutes there, so the conversion factor is (1 h) / (60 min):

    (375 mi/h) · (1 h) / (60 min) = (375/60) mi/min = 6.25 mi/min

    __

    c) Minutes per mile is the inverse of the value you just calculated:

    1 / (6.25 mi/min) = (1/6.25) min/mi = 0.16 min/mi
