First, let's convert the givens to decimals to make calculations easier:
2 (3/4) = 2.75
9(5/8) = 9.625

We are given that:
Josie can hike 2.75 miles in one hour.
To know the time that Josie would take to hike 9.625 miles, we will simply do cross multiplication as follows:
2.75 miles ..........> 1 hour
9.625 miles .............> ?? hours

Time = (9.625*1) / (2.75) = 3.5 hours
