Question

Asharia ran 9miles with her friend Mallory last week. This is 60% of the distance she ran all week. How far did she run last week.?

Answer 1

9 miles is = 60% of the distance she ran all the week.

9 =  60% of  x.
9 =  0.60 * x.
0.6 x  =  9 .  Divide both sides by 0.6.

x =  9 / 0.6
x = 15.
Total distance =  15 miles.
