Using the principle of proportional relationship, the time taken by the turtle to walk one mile is 2.1667 hours

Creating a system of proportional expression :

1.5 miles = 3.25 hours - - - - (1)

1 mile = t hours ----(2)

Cross multiply :

1.5t = (3.25 × 1)

1.5t = 3.25

Divide both sides by 1.5

t = (3.25 ÷ 1.5)

t = 2.1667 hours

Therefore, the time taken per mile is 2.1667 hours
