amelia walks 1.5 miles per .75 day. How far will she walk in 2 weeks


(please explain how to solve if you want)


Sagot :

This is how I would solve it.

First, find how many miles per day.
The ratio of miles to days is 1.5:0.75. Because 0.75 is not divisible by 1 (technically it is, but the number wouldn’t be useful), I will change it to something that is.
(1.5:0.75)/3 = 0.5:0.25. That is 0.5 miles for a quarter of a day. You would need to convert that to a whole day to make it easier to do the math.
Four quarters make a dollar; you multiply the ratio by four.
4(0.5:0.25) = 2:1

She walks a total of two miles a day.

We know that there are seven days in a week. The question is asking for two weeks. Two weeks is 14 days. You know that she walks two miles in a single day. There are 14 single days in two weeks.

Two miles a day for 14 days will be equal to 28 miles.

I hope that makes sense, feel free to message me if you’re still confused.
