Question

Stephens drove through a total of 36 intersections on her way home from work last week at four of every 16 intervention it intersections Miss Stephens had to stop for a red light before she could drive through how many how how many intersections did Misty Stephens have to stop for a red light

Answer 1

9

Explanation:

Given that :

Number of intersection driven through = 36

At 4 of every 16 intersections, there is a red light;

Hence, the rate of red light per intetaection could be calculated as ;

Number of red lights / number of intersections

4 / 16 = 1 /4

Hence, driving through 36 intersections,

Number of red lights will be ;

(1 /4) * 36

= 9 red lights = 9 stops
