25/2 × 2/5 × 5

25 minutes

Justin 's time of arrival=

if 23/4 miles : 12 minutes

25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷ 23/4 ×12

25/2 × 4/23 ×12

26 minutes approximately

Brandon 's time of arrival=

if 114 miles : 258 minutes

25/2 miles : ?

25/2 ÷114 ×258

If n represents a number then write an expression for two less than one fourth of n
Ne4ueva [31]

Answer:  \frac{1}{4}n-2

This is the same as \frac{n}{4} - 2 and it is also equivalent to 0.25n-2

=====================================================

Explanation:

n is some placeholder for a number

one fourth of that number is \frac{1}{4}n which is the same as \frac{n}{4} or 0.25n since 1/4 = 0.25

From here, we subtract off 2 to get \frac{1}{4}n-2 as one possible final answer.
