Answer:

4 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we know he travels at a rate of 1:7.5 all we have to do is divide 7.5 by 30. Do you use proportions? You can set this up as a proportion and the find answer easily.

1[tex]\frac{1}{7.5} =\frac{x}{30}[/tex]

Now we cross product.

7.5 multipled by x  =7.5x

1x30=30

so now we have

7.5x=30

Now we have to divide 7.5 on both sides which gives us

x=4
