George walks $1$ mile to school. He leaves home at the same time each day, walks at a steady speed of $3$ miles per hour, and arrives just as school begins. Today he was distracted by the pleasant weather and walked the first $\frac{1}{2}$ mile at a speed of only $2$ miles per hour. At how many miles per hour must George run the last $\frac{1}{2}$ mile in order to arrive just as school begins today? $\textbf{(A) }4\qquad\textbf{(B) }6\qquad\textbf{(C) }8\qquad\textbf{(D) }10\qquad \textbf{(E) }12$

Given an integer $h > 1$. Let's call a positive common fraction (not necessarily irreducible) [i]good[/i] if the sum of its numerator and denominator is equal to $h$. Let's say that a number $h$ is [i]remarkable[/i] if every positive common fraction whose denominator is less than $h$ can be expressed in terms of good fractions (not necessarily various) using the operations of addition and subtraction. Prove that $h$ is remarkable if and only if it is prime. (Recall that an common fraction has an integer numerator and a natural denominator.)
