Answer:

60 miles far is the trip.

Explanation:

Given:

Ms Joice is going on a trip to Scranton and she has completed 60% of her trip.

She has traveled 36 miles.

Now, to find how far is the trip of her.

So, as given 60% of her trip is 36 miles which is completed.

Thus, we need to find the 100% of her trip first:

Now, using the cross product:

Let the 100% of the trip be
x.

If, 60% is equivalent to 36 miles

.

Thus, 100% is equivalent to
x miles.

By setting the proportion:


(60)/(36) =(100)/(x)

By cross multiplication we get:


60* x=3600

Dividing both sides by 60 we get:


x=60\ miles.

Therefore, 60 miles far is the trip.
