Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
- Total distance = 10 miles
- Total time = 2 hours
- Distance walked = x
- Speed walked = 2 mph
- Distance cycled = 10 - x
- Speed cycled = 15 mph
<u>Using the given data we can have the equation below to the time:</u>
- x/2 + (10 - x)/15 = 2
- 30x/2 + 30(10 - x)/15 = 30(2)
- 15x + 20 - 2x = 60
- 13x = 60 - 20
- 13x = 40
- x = 40/13
- x = 3.08 miles <em>rounded to 2 decimal places</em>
In this question there is nothing complicated. Only thing is to know the way fractions can be divided. Once that is known the problem would be one of the easiest to solve. Now let us get back to the problem and look at all the information's that are given in the question.
Divide 7/15 by 3/5 = (7/15)/(3/5)
= (7 * 5)/(15 * 3)
= (35/45)
Dividing the numerator and the denominator by 5 for simplifying purpose, we get
= 7/9
So from the above deduction we can easily conclude that 7/9 is the correct answer and option "B" is the correct option among all the options given in the question.

answer: 16
how? 100/4 = 25
3/4 = 0.75 because 25 x 3 = 0.75
0.75x = 12
12/0.75 = 16
