Answer:

1.07 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

14 miles = 1 hour

15 miles = x hours

Equal these two together

14 mi/1hr = 15 mi/xhr

Cross multiply

14 mi × x hr = 1 hr × 15 mi

I will stop using the units for now so it won't be as confusing

14x = 15

Divide both sides by 14 to isolate the variable

14x ÷ 14 = 15 ÷ 14

x = 1.07... hours
