Answer:
2 [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
First, we will turn 5 2/5 into an improper fraction:
5 * 5 = 25 + 2 = 27/5
So they worked for 27/5 days.
We want to divide the days worked by the distance to get the unit rate of distance per day:
[tex]\frac{12}{\frac{27}{5} } = \frac{12}{1} * \frac{5}{27}=\frac{60}{27}=\frac{20}{9}[/tex]
So our answer is 2 [tex]\frac{2}{9}[/tex]
Hope this helps, have a great day! :D
