Question

Karl rode his bike 3/8 of the distance from Lakeview to Bay Cove, which is 24.1 miles. How many more miles does he need to ride to complete his trip?

Answer 1

The distance from lakeview to bay cobe is 24.1 miles and karl already rode 3/8 of the distance. Karl rode is 24.1*(3/8) = 8.025 mile. Subtract the current distance karl rode to the total distance to get the remaining distance he need to ride, 24.1 – 8.025 = 16.075 mi

Answer 2

Answer:  Karl needs to drive 40.17 miles more.

Step-by-step explanation:  Given that Karl rode his bike $\dfrac{3}{8}$ of the distance from Lake view to Bay Cove, which is 24.1 miles.

We are to find the number of miles that he needs to ride more to complete his trip.

Let x miles be the distance for the complete trip.

Then, according to the given information, we have

$\dfrac{3}{8}\times x=24.1\\\\\\\Rightarrow 3x=192.8\\\\\Rightarrow x=\dfrac{192.8}{3}\\\\\Rightarrow x=64.27.$

Therefore, he number of miles he needs to ride more is given by

$x-24.1=64.27-24.1=40.17.$

Thus, Karl needs to drive 40.17 miles more.
