Question

A construction crew has just finished building a road. The crew worked for 10 days. If they built 2 5/6 kilometers of road each day, what is the total length of road they build?

Answer 1

Answer:

$28\frac{1}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1. Convert the fraction into a decimal

$2\frac{5}{6}$ ≈ $2.833$..

Step 2. Multiply the decimal by the number of days (10)

$2.833$ × $10 =$ about $28.33$..

Since 0.33 equals a third, you can change the decimal to $28\frac{1}{3}$
