Question

Shannon biked in an endurance cycling race.She traveled 2,912 miles and biked about 95 miles each day.About how many days did it take her to complete the race?

Answer 1

about 31 days for her to complete the race

Answer 2

About 31 days

Explanation:

We are given that

Distance traveled by Shannon=2,912 miles

She travels distance per day=About 95 miles

We have to find number of days taken by Shannon to complete the race.

To find the number of days taken by Shannon to complete the race we will find the time taken by Shannon to complete 1 mile distance

Shannon takes time to cover about 95 miles distance=1 day

Shannon takes time to cover 1 mile distance=
`(1)/(95)` day

Shannon takes time to cover 2,912 miles distance =
`(1)/(95)* 2,912`

Shannon takes time to cover 2,912 miles distance=30.65 days
`\approx 31` days.

Hence, Shannon takes time to complete the race=about 31 days
