Question

When James family went on the road to the carnival they were stuck in traffic. After a 20 minutes they are were 30 more miles left, after 35 minutes passed. How many more miles are left? If the fair is 58 miles away?

Answer 1

They would be 5.5 miles away because if you take 20 divided by 20 to get 1 minute you would have to take 30 divided by 20 to get 1.5 miles per 1 minute. Then you would have to take 1 times 35 to get 35 minutes and you would have to take 1.5 times 35 to get 52.5. Then lastly you would take 58 miles and subtract 52.5 to get 5.5 miles therefor your answer would be 5.5 miles.
