Question

HELP PLS.Sonia takes a 4/5-mile walk every day. What part of her walk has she completed once she has walked 3/5 mile?

Answer 1

So, the question’s a bit weird, but I’m going to assume it’s asking for what fraction of her walk she had completed:

Basically you need to divide 3/5 by 4/5

Dividing a fraction is the same as multiplying as the reciprocal of the fraction (the top and bottom get reversed)

Therefore you need to find 3/5 • 5/4

Solving this should get you 15/20, which can be simplified to 3/4.


So the answer is she has completed 3/4 of her walk (75%)
