Correct = Brainlest Abe digs a hole at a steady rate of 1 2/3 feet every hour. Consider ground level to be 0. What value represents the elevation of the hole relative to ground level after digging for 2 1/2 hours? Enter your answer as a simplified mixed number in the box. ft
If he digs at a rate of [tex]1~2/3[/tex] feet every hour, and he needs [tex]2~1/2[/tex] hours, we want to find [tex](2~1/2)/(1~2/3)=(5/2)/(5/3)=(5*3)/(5*2)=3/2=\boxed{1~1/2}[/tex] feet.
