7/6miles in 1/3 hour
Let x be the distance in miles Maria can walk in 1/3 hour

3¹/₂ miles   =     x        
   1 hour           1/3 hour

7/2 miles    =      x    
   1 hour          1/3 hour

(1) (x) hour = (7/2 miles) (1/3 hour)

x hour = 7/6 miles  (hour)
   hour                  hour

x = 7/6  or   1 ¹/6 miles

Maria can walk 1¹/₆ miles in 1/3 hour.
