Question

Liz has to run 150 miles over a period of three months to receive an achievement award. If she has already run 65% of the 150, how many more must she run to receive the award?

Answer 1

52.5

Step-by-step explanation:150 - 65% (97.5)=52.5

Answer 2

52.5 miles

Explanation:

If she has already run 65% of the 150 miles, she still need to run

100-65 = 35

35% of the 150 miles.

To calculate the number of miles she still needs to run, we multiply 150 miles times 35 percent in decimal form

150 *35%

150 * .35

52.5 miles

She still need to run 52.5 miles
