MIPS Rate?

Assume the existence of a CPU with a 2.4 GHz clock rate.  The instruction and execution cycles are each 50 percent of the clock cycle.  The average instruction requires 1 nanosecond to complete execution.  Main memory access speed for a single instruction is 4 nanoseconds on average.  What is the expected average MIPS rate for this CPU?

Check chapter 5 in your textbook junior. I doubt anyone will submit an answer as this is a homework question...

or perhaps you could try to ask the part you do not understand.
experts cannot give you complete solutions.
you may wish to explore the assembly topic area.
