Answer:
PROBABLY ABOUT 27 OR 26.6666666667
There will be 4 water stations.
Why?
3/4 = .75 as a decimal
Personally, I believe that it’s easier to use decimals, I can explain the way in fractions in the comments if you’d like, just ask.
Anyway, .75 • 4= 3
or 3 / .75 = 4 (division is easier with bigger numbers)
so, there will be 4 water stations, given that the one race is 3 miles long.
If this explanation seems unclear, I’d be happy to explain. Feel free to ask in the comments!! I’m happy to help.
Hope this helps!

140 miles you have to divided 28 by 12 and you get 2.333333333 then you times that by 60 because their is 60 mins in one hour
Adult tickets cost $10 each and student tickets cost $6 each.
Given:
Kyle's family bought 4 adult tickets and 2 student tickets for $52
Maria's family bought 3 adult tickets and 5 student tickets for 60.
Let us assign x as the adult tickets and y as the students tickets
Kyle's family: 4x + 2y = 52
Maria's family: 3x + 5y = 60
Let us find the value of x using Kyle's equation:
4x + 2y = 52
4x = 52 - 2y
x = (52 - 2y)/4
x = 13 - y/2
Substitute the value of x in Maria's equation to find y.
3x + 5y = 60
3(13 - y/2) + 5y = 60
39 - 3y/2 + 5y = 60
- 3y/2 + 5y = 60 - 39
- 3y/2 + 5y = 21
2(-3y/2 + 5y) = 2(21)
-3y + 10y = 42
7y = 42
7y/7 = 42/7
y = 6
x = 13 - y/2
x = 13 - 6/2
x = 13 - 3
x = 10
To check:
Kyle's Family Maria's Family
4x + 2y = 52 3x + 5y = 60
4(10) + 2(6) = 52 3(10) + 5(6) = 60
40 + 12 = 52 30 + 30 = 60
52 = 52 60 = 60
