Question

Lins family has completed 70% of a trip they have traveled 35 miles how long is the whole trip

Answer 1

The distance of the whole trip is 50 miles.

Explanation:

Let the distance of the whole trip be x.

70% x = 35 miles

(70/100)x = 35 miles

x = 35 * (100/70) miles

x = 50 miles

Therefore, the distance of the whole trip is 50 miles.

Hope this helped!

Answer 2

50

Explanation:

Percantage Lin's family covered = 70 %

The distance they had travelled= 35 miles

The total distance of the trip = 70 / 100 x X = 35

( explanation : the formula to find the percentage of something is "percentage/ 100 of the total " so we used linear equation.... and so we made use of [this much percentage of "x" or something is this much] )

I hope you understood and this is right !
