Answer:

12 trades

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call 'x' the number of trades they will do.

After each trade, the number of cards Ian has increase by 1 (he gives 1 but receives 2), and the number of cards Jason has decrease by 1 (he receives 1 but gives 2), so after x trades, the number of cards Ian has is 20 + x, and Jason has 44 - x.

To find the number of trades when they will have the same amount of cards, we have that:

20 + x = 44 - x

2x = 24

x = 12 trades

Given:
1 inch : 18 kilometers

Let us use the ratio and proportion method:

a:b = c:d where ad = bc

0.8 inches is <u>14.4 kilometers</u>

1 : 18 = 0.8 : x
x = 0.8 * 18
x = 14.4 km

1.4 inches is <u>25.2 kilometers</u>

1: 18 = 1.4 : x
x = 18 * 1.4
x = 25.2 km

2.1 inches is <u>37.8 kilometers</u>

1 : 18 = 2.1 : x
x = 18 * 2.1
x = 37.8 km
