On a partly cloudy day, Derek decides to walk back from work. When it is sunny, he walks at a speed of s miles/hr (s is an integer) and when it gets cloudy, he increases his speed to (s + 1) miles/hr. If his average speed for the entire distance is 2.8 miles/hr, what fraction W of the total distance did he cover while the sun was shining on him?	Choose the correct choice from the following choices
A) 1 / 4
B) 4 / 5
C) 1 / 5
D) 1 / 6
E) 1 / 7

Rationale: if s is an integer and we know that the average speed is 2.8 , s must be = 2 . that meanss + 1 = 3 . this implies that the ratio of time for s = 2 is 1 / 4 of the total time . the formula for distance / rate is d = rt . . . so the distance travelled when s = 2 is 2 t . the distance travelled for s + 1 = 3 is 3 * 4 t or 12 t . therefore , total distance covered while the sun was shining over him is w = 2 / 14 = 1 / 7 . answer : e
Answer: E
