The answer is 5/4 in

The initial length:
1 ft = 12 in
8 ft = 8 * 12 in
      = 96 in

The final length:
7 ft 10 3/4 in = 7 ft + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 7 * 12 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 84 in + 10 in + 3/4 in
                     = 94 in + 3/4 in

The cut if the initial length - final length:
96 in - 94 in - 3/4 in = 2 in - 3/4 in = 8/4 in - 3/4 in = 5/4 in

Anon25 [30]

Answer:

Samuel slept for 1/4 of the distance.

Step-by-step explanation:

The information provided are:

  • Samuel fell asleep halfway home.
  • He didn't wake up until he still had half as far to go as he had already
  • gone while asleep.

Consider that the total distance covered was 1.

Then from the first point we know that Samuel fell asleep after covering a distance of 1/2.

It is provided that he woke up only after covering half of the remaining distance.

That is, he slept for 1/4 of the remaining distance.

Thus, Samuel was asleep for 1/4th of the entire trip home.
