They should hike 9.5 miles the first day. 30÷100= 0.38
0.38×25= 9.5

Answer 2

Answer:  9.5 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A group of friends were on a hiking trip they plan to hike a total of 38 miles .

They want to complete 25% of the hike  by the end of the first day .

We can write 25% as 0.25 in decimal.

Now, the number of miles they should hike the first day will be :-

$0.25\times38=9.5\text{ miles}$

Hence, the number of miles they should hike the first day =9.5 miles
