Answer:

150 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

If 1/2 of an inch is 20 miles, we can assume that 1/4 of an inch is 10 miles, since half of 1/2 is 1/4 and 1/2 of 20 is 10.

Equipped with this information, we can divide 3 by 1/2 or multiply 3 by the reciprical, 2/1 to get how much we should multiply 20 by.

3*2=6

20*6=120

Then we can multiply 10 by 3 and add that on our answer, since there are still 3/4s left and 1/4=10 miles.

10*3=30

120+30=150

The actual distance is 150 miles.

Hope this helps!

Solve for g: 5/8 = 12/g
anastassius [24]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{5}{8} = \frac{12}{g}

Multiplying both sides by g gives us the following:

\frac{5g}{8} = 12

Multiplying both sides by 8 gives us the following:

5g = 108

Dividing both sides by 5 gives us the answer:

g = 21.6
