Question

Sue walked 3.38 miles. Alex walked five times as many miles as Sue. Dan walked 4.68 miles more than Alex. How far did Dan walk

Answer 1

21.58 miles

Explanation:

First let's find how many miles Alex walked.

It said "Alex walked five times as many miles as Sue" so lets multiply 3.38 with 5: 3.38 x 5 = 16.9

So, Alex walked 16.9 miles. Now we can find Dan's.

It said "Dan walked 4.68 miles more than Alex" so lets add 4.68 to 16.9: 16.9 + 4.68 = 21.58

So Dan walked 21.58 miles
