Question:
You are in a bike race. When you get to the first checkpoint, you are 2/5 of the distance to the second checkpoint. When you get to the second check point, you are 1/4 of the distance to the finish. If the entire race is 40 miles, what is the distance between the start and the first check point?
Answer: 4 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Let distance between start to first checkpoint = x
First checkpoint to second checkpoint = 2/5 of x
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 of start to checkpoint 2)
Distance of start to checkpoint 2 = (1/4 of start to finish)
If start to checkpoint 2 = 1/4 of start to finish
Then,
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = ( 2/5 * 1/4 of start to finish)
Distance of start to checkpoint 1 = 2/20 of start to finish = 1/10 of start to finish
Entire race = 40 miles = distance from start to finish
1/ 10 of 40
= ( 1/10) × 40
= 4 miles
Answer:
2/5 or 40%
Step-by-step explanation:
.40 is 40 hundredths or 40/100
40/100 can be reduced to 20/50 and reduced again to 10/25 and one more time to 2/5
Percentages are fractions out of 100 so 40/100 would be 40%.
Answer:
I'm not sure what the question was but I've worked out all the three types of trees
Step-by-step explanation:
⅓ + ⅕ = 8/15 because:
×5 ×3
5/15 + 3/15 = 8/15
therefore 7/15 is fig trees
90÷15 =6
6×5 = 30 apple trees
6×3 = 18 lemon trees
6×7 = 42 fig trees
