Answer:

Problem: Jamie was driving for 24 miles in the first hour and 36 miles is the second hour. But, she stopped at a gas station 1/4 of the total drive. Find how far the gas station is from her start.

Answer:

24 + 36 = 50

50 * 1/4 = 50/4

50/4 = 12.5

Explanation: The gas station is 12.5 miles from her start to a 50 mile journey. The gas station was 1/4 of the total drive which was 50 miles. 1/4 of 50 is 12.5
