A family has traveled 114 miles of a planned trip. This is 37% of the total distance they must travel on the trip. Find, correct

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The total distance they will travel on their trip is 308 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

114 miles is 37% = 0.37. How many mines are 100% = 1?

114 miles - 0.37

x miles - 1

$0.37x = 114$

$x = \frac{114}{0.37}$

$x = 308.11$

Rounding to the nearest mile

The total distance they will travel on their trip is 308 miles.
