Drew is driving out of state to go to a theme park. The total distance he is driving is 500.34 miles. He has driven 0.45 of the

Answer 1

The calculation is not reasonable, because 0.45 is less tha 1/2 ( 0.50) and what he has for an answer is half the distance ( 250.17 is 1/2 of 500.34).

To find actual mileage, multiply by 0.45:

500.34 x 0.45 = 225.153 miles.

Round the answer as needed.
