You can model the situation by 13/x=1/4, where x is the distance to otter ridge. you then cross multiply, getting you to x=52

$Multiply\ fraction\ times \ all\ distance\\\\ \frac{1}{4}*13miles=\frac{13}{4}miles=3\frac{1}{4}miles\\\\
They\ walked\ 3\frac{1}{4}miles.$

There’s probably an easier way to do it like with the equation to find the area of a trapezoid but i did it this way bc it’s easier for me

i split the trapezoid into a triangle and a square
with the pythagorean theorem i found the missing side length to find the area of the square (length X width)
then found the area of the triangle (base X height divided by 2)

THE ANSWER IS 68.9 CM
