Question

If i hiked 5 2/10 kilometers in one weekend and the next week i hike 9/10 kilometer more than then the week before how many kilometers did i walk the second week

Answer 1

Answer:

6$\frac{1}{10}$ kilometers

Step-by-step explanation:

From the given question, it can be inferred that;

In the first weekend, distance covered = 5$\frac{2}{10}$ kilometers.

But in the second week or following weekend, I hike $\frac{9}{10}$ more than the first week implies that, total distance covered in the second week = distance covered in the first week + $\frac{9}{10}$

                                            = 5$\frac{2}{10}$ + $\frac{9}{10}$

                                            = $\frac{52}{10}$ + $\frac{9}{10}$

                                            = $\frac{52 + 9}{10}$

                                            = $\frac{61}{10}$

                                            = 6$\frac{1}{10}$

Therefore, the total distance walked in the second week is 6$\frac{1}{10}$ kilometers.
