Question

Consider the rates 4/5 miles in 8 minutes and 4 minutes to travel 2/5 mile

Answer 1

Answer:

960

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure exactly what's the question, but here's what I found. Lets first put it in our own words.

Consider the speed 4/5 miles in 12 minutes to travel 2/8.

8 + 4 = 12, so you can replace that with 12 minutes.

Now, you can absolutely guess your question.

Time = 12 minutes.

Distance = x (Let x be distance)

Speed = 4/5.

Now, you find distance.

Distance Formula: You can use the equivalent formula d = st which means distance equals rate times time.

So 4/5 × 12, is 9.6.

In fraction, if you have 1 numbers after the decimal point, multiply both numerator and denominator by 10. So 9.6 = (9.6 × 10) × 10 = 960.

Here is a pattern I found

2/5 divided by 4 is 1/10

4/5 divided by 8 is 1/10
