Question

Which equation will solve the following word problem? In a given amount of time, Jamie drove four times as far as Rhonda. Altogether they drove 125 miles. Find the number of miles driven by each. 4T + T = 125 4T = 125/T T = 125/4T 4T - T = 12

Answer 1

Answer:

1) 4T+T=125

2) Rhonda drove 25 miles

and Jamie drove 100 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Rhonda drove = T

Jamie drove = 4T

4T+T=125

2) 5T=125

T=125/5

T=25

So Rhonda drove T = 25

And Jamie drove 4T = 100
