If there is a 24 foot board cut into 2 pieces and one piece is 4 times longer than the other what are the lengths of each piece

3 0

First set up an equation as your approach. I will use the equation x+4x=24 because that way you are saying that something pluse itself times 4 equals 24 which is what you want.

simplify the equation

5x=24

x=24/5

So you know onw piece will be 24/5 of a foot and the ither qould be that times 4 so 96/24 of a foot. In decimals it would be 4.8 and 19.2

Since Karl became sleepy and decided to decrease his driving time by 25%, he drove <u>767.25 hours</u> that day.

<h3>What is driving time?</h3>

Planned driving time is the estimated time that Karl planned to drive between two points or to one's destination.

The Actual driving time is the actual time that it took Karl to drive from one point to his destination.

Driving time can be estimated or calculated by dividing the distance by the speed.

<h3>Data and Calculations:</h3>

The planned driving hours on a certain day = 1,023 hours

Decrease in driving time = 25%

Percentage of hours Karl drove = 75% (100 - 25)

Hours drove that day = 767.25 hours (1,023 x 75%)

Thus, Karl drove <u>767.25 hours</u> that day.
