Answer:

The answer is b. But you asked for the thought process so...

Step-by-step explanation:

Let speed of the 1st trip x miles / hr. and speed of the 2nd trip 3x / hr.

We know that

Speed = Distance/Time.

Or, Time = Distance/Speed.

So, the time taken to cover a distance of 50 miles on his first trip = 50/x hr.

And the time taken to cover a distance of 300 miles on his later trip = 300/3x hr.

= 100/x hr.

So we can clearly see that his new time compared with the old time was: twice as much.

Have a great day :)

lukranit [14]
To figure this problem out, we need to divide 2/3 by 3/4.

2/3 / 3/4 = 8/9 or 0.888888 repeating.

Therefore, there are 8/9 of the 3/4 cup servings in 2/3 cup of yogurt.
