Question

A construction crew has just built a new road. They built 15.36 kilometers of road in 6 weeks. At what rate did they build the road?

Answer 1

Divide total length by time:

15.36 / 6 = 2.56 km per week

Answer 2

We would do division by the amount they have built by how long it took them to built it.

$\boxed{15.36\div6} = 2.56(km) \Leftarrow a \ week$

Your answer: $\boxed{\boxed{\bf{2.56(km) \Leftarrow (per \ week)}}}$
