Question

sid walked 6 miles toward his home which is 3/5 of the total distance. What is the total distance to his home?

Answer 1

Sid walked 6 miles, which is 3/5 of the total distance.

Divide 6 with 3

6/3 = 2

2 miles is the walking distance for 1/5

Multiply 5 to both sides

2 (x 5) = 1/5 (x 5)

10 = 1

The total distance is 10 miles

hope this helps
