Question

What is the distance from W to X?

Answer 1

Answer:

The answer is 35 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's assume that the distance from W to Y is x miles

Distance from W to X is 70 % of x =0.7*x

Given distance from X to Y is 15 miles.

x-15=0.7x

x-0.7x=15

0.3x=15

x=15/0.3

x=50miles

Thus the distance from W to Y is 50 miles and the distance from W to X is 50-15=35 miles
