A 12 1/2 mile stretch of road needs repaving . A company bids on the repaving project saying they could replace 2 1/4 miles of r
oad per week. How many weeks will the company take to completely replace the stretch of road?
1 answer:
2 1/4 miles => 1 week
1 mile => 1 ÷ 9/4
( 9/4 is an improper fraction of 2 1/4 )
12 1/2 miles => ( 1 ÷ 9/4 ) × 25/2
= 50/9
= 5 5/9 weeks
( 25/2 is an improper fraction of 12 1/2 )
Therefore, it will take 5 5/9 weeks for the company to replace the stretch of road.
( you can round it off to 6 weeks if the qn specify to give to the nearest whole number )
