They would have to drive 9 miles for the taxi to cost the same.
Hope this helped, this is the longest way to work it out but also the simplest.
1*3/5 = 3/5.
3/5(t-6) = -0.4
Distribute 3/5
3/5t - 3.6 = -0.4
Add 3.6
3/5t = 3.2
Divide by 3/5
t = 5 1/3 or 5.33
100% of Kerion's paper squares are:
(100% / 100%) = 1
Half of the squares of your paper are colored blue:
(1) / (2) = 1/2
Of the blue squares, 1/3 of them will also have stripes:
(1/2) * (1/3) = 1/6
answer
A fraction of (1/6) squares will be blue with strips
