Tallulah's family took a road trip to the Grand Canyon. Tallulah slept for the last 129 miles of the trip. If the total length of the trip was 300 miles, what percentage of the total trip had they traveled when Tallulah fell asleep?

Sagot :

Answer:

43% of the trip

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Create an Equation

300 miles/100*x percent=129 miles <=== Make an equation so you can find the percent she slept of the trip

2. Solve

300 miles/100*x percent=129 miles

3x=129 <=== 300 divided by 100 is 3 and 3 times x is also 3x

3x/3=129/3 <=== divide by 3 from both sides

x=43

Since x is 43 that means 129 equals 43% which is how much Tallulah slept

of the trip.

3. Check

300 miles/100*43%=129 miles <=== Substitute x with 43%

3x43%=129

129=129 <=== 129 is 129 which means that the answer is correct!
