Let Brian's steps have a measure of 1, and Richard's steps have a measure of k. Then after each walks 5 steps away from the other, their distance apart is
... 5 + 5k
We are told that distance is equal to 9 of Richard's steps, so is equal to 9k.
... 5 + 5k = 9k
... 5 = 4k . . . . . . . subtract 5k
... 5/4 = k . . . . . . divide by 4
Richard's steps are 5/4 the size of Brian's steps. The appropriate selection is
... b) 5/4
C.) 30 since they both have 5's just take them out then subtract 50 and 20 *but make sure u take out the decimal though* so after u subtract u will get 30 then line it up and put the decimal back then it will be .30
D. I think because you would get a negative
