Answer 1

Answer: Length of each part of his journey is

$\frac{1}{48}\ miles$

Explanation:

Since we have given that

Tortoise  must walk run $\frac{1}{12}$ miles to visit a friend.

According to question,

He plans to break a journey into four equal parts .

Length of each part becomes

$\frac{\frac{1}{12}}{\frac{1}{4}}\\\\=\frac{1}{12\times 4}\\\\=\frac{1}{48}\ miles$

Hence, length of each part of his journey is

$\frac{1}{48}\ miles$
