In order to make the whole problem easier, you would have to get all the numbers to have the same denominator which would be 60.

1/10 * 6 = 6/60
1/4 * 15 = 15/60
1/5 * 12 = 12/60
2/15 * 4 = 8/60

Now that all the numbers have the same denominator, you would add them to get 41/60.
In conclusion, the answer would be D.

lora16 [44]
In order to answer this question let's suppose,
Joe is x miles from the beginning and y miles from the end. These assumptions are necessary to answer further:

Now,
x=2y
x+y=30
plugging in x=2y in the above equation
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10

Hence, according to our calculations, Joe has to hike 10 miles further
