Let the number be 'x'.
Three times a number will then give 3x
Therefore the equation will be:
Answer:
Do you have an equation to find the answer?
Answer:
maybe there's a typo, that dot usually represents the multiplication, and I got 5.52
Answer:
The answer is 4.35, rounded two decimals to hundredths place.

Since he must not exceed 8 hours driving in a day:
Let the distance of the picnic be = x km.
Therefore time for forward journey = x / 60
Return journey = x / 50
The total trip should not exceed 8 hours.
Therefore: x / 60 + x / 50 <= 8. LCM = 300
Taking LCM and multiplying on both sides:
5x + 6x <= 8(300)
11x <= 2400
x <= 2400/11
x <= 218.18
The picnic spot must be less than or equal to 218.18 km.
