Answer with explanation:

Total length of road [tex]=\frac{2 \text{miles}}{5}[/tex]

Amount Repaved per Hour

[tex]=\frac{1 \frac{\text{miles}}{\text{hour}}}{30}[/tex]

Using Unitary method

 [tex]\Rightarrow 1 \text{hour}=\frac{1 \text{miles}}{30}\\\\\Rightarrow 30 \text{hour}=1 \text{miles}}\\\\\Rightarrow \frac{2\text{miles}}{5}=30 \times \frac{2}{5} \text{hour}\\\\\Rightarrow \frac{2\text{miles}}{5}=12 \text{hour}[/tex]

Total time taken by crew to repave the road= 12 hour
