Answer:
23 11/12 yards or 23.9166 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
2/3 of 100 yard race is equivalent to 66 2/3 yards. Tge difference between the above and 42 3/4 yards covered by tortoise will be
66 2/3- 42 3/4= 23 11/12 yards or 23.91666 yards
The way to get the length of RS is actually very simple. You see how there is a number 17 in the line? You take that and it should mean every area where a line should be is 17. So, R is 17, the 2nd line is 17, M is 17, the 4th line is 17, and S is 17. So you then multiply 17 times 5 and get 85.
