multiply 1.5 by 3.5 and there's your answer
    5.25 is ur answer

Andreas completed 5km race in = 3.5 minutes

His sisters time is 1 1/2 or 1 and a half or 1 and 0.5 or 1.5 times more than his time


So, his sisters time= 1 1/2 times Andres time

=1 and a half * Andres time

=1 and 0.5 * Andres time

=1.5 * Andres time

=1.5*3.5

=5.25minutes


So, Andres sister take 5.25 minutes to complete a 5 km race.
