    In order to find the distance covered in 1 minute, we need to divide distance covered 2 1/6 miles by 20 minutes. We are given : Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 1/3 hour.

    Let us convert 1/3 hour into minutes.

    There are 60 minutes in an hour.

    Therefore, 1/3 hours = 60 * 1/3 = 20 minutes.

    So, we could say, "Ariel swims 2 1/6 miles in every 20 minutes".

    2 1/6: 20 = 13/6 : 20.

    Let us convert division sign into multiplication and flip 20 to 1/20.

    We get

    13/6 * 1/20 = 13/120 miles in 1 minute. In decimal 0.11 mile in 1 minute.
