Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Bella can run a mile in 9.54 minutes

Linda can run a mile in 8.22 minutes

We know, $\text{distance=speed}\times\text{ time}$

Speed of Bella, for running a mile is

$\Rightarrow v_b=\dfrac{1}{\frac{9.54}{60}}=\dfrac{60}{9.54}\\\\\Rightarrow v_b=6.29\ mph$

Speed of Linda, for running a mile is

$\Rightarrow v_l=\dfrac{1}{\frac{8.22}{60}}=\dfrac{60}{8.22}\\\\\Rightarrow v_l=7.29\ mph$

So, Linda is faster than Bella, as her speed is more compared to Linda.

Linda is $\frac{9.54}{8.22}=1.16$ times faster than bella
