Question

Mai biked 6 3/4 miles today , and Noah biked 4 1/2 miles . How many times the length of Noah’s bike did was mai’s bike rid

Answer 1

Mai biked 1.5 times more distance than Noah.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Distance biked by Mai = $6\frac{3}{4}=\frac{27}{4}$ miles

Distance biked by Noah = $4\frac{1}{2}=\frac{9}{2}\ miles$

Let,

x be the number of number of times.

Therefore;

$\frac{27}{4}=\frac{9}{2}x$

Multiplying both sides by 2/9

$\frac{2}{9}*\frac{27}{4}=\frac{2}{9}*\frac{9}{2}x\\\\\frac{3}{2}=x\\\\x=1.5$

Therefore;

Mai biked 1.5 times more distance than Noah.
