1/3 of 24 is 8.
The way I usually find this is by multiplying different numbers by three and seeing if it equals (in this case) 24.

8 x 3 = 24
Because eight goes into twenty-four three times, eight is one-third of twenty-four.

Hope this helps!

On the first day of travel, a driver was going at a speed of 40 mph. The next day, he increased the speed to 60 mph. If he drove

Velocity, distance and time:

This question is solved using the following formula:

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

In which v is the velocity, d is the distance, and t is the time.

On the first day of travel, a driver was going at a speed of 40 mph.

Time $t_1$ , distance of $d_1$ , v = 40. So

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

$40 = \frac{d_1}{t_1}$

The next day, he increased the speed to 60 mph. If he drove 2 more hours on the first day and traveled 20 more miles

On the second day, the velocity is $v = 60$ .

On the first day, he drove 2 more hours, which means that for the second day, the time is: $t_1 - 2$

On the first day, he traveled 20 more miles, which means that for the second day, the distance is: $d_1 - 20$

Thus

$v = \frac{d}{t}$

$60 = \frac{d_1 - 20}{t_1 - 2}$

System of equations:

Now, from the two equations, a system of equations can be built. So

$40 = \frac{d_1}{t_1}$

$60 = \frac{d_1 - 20}{t_1 - 2}$

Find the total distance traveled in the two days:

We solve the system of equation for $d_1$ , which gets the distance on the first day. The distance on the second day is $d_2 = d_1 - 20$ , and the total distance is:
