Answer:
D
Step-by-step explanation:
first, you take the total and divide it by 3 since 3 is multiplied by x
when you divide -27 by 3 you get -9 and that is the answer.
-27/3=-9
x=-9
So her friend runs 3/5 the distance of Nicole's, and that happens to be 3/8 of a mile.
now, a whole will be 5/5, or 1 whole, and that's how much Nicole runs.
we know that 3/5 of Nicole's distance is 3/8 of a mile, what is 5/5 or 1 whole?
