Answer 1

four days; 3 3/5 = 36/10, 36/10 divided by 9/10=4

Answer 2

4 days

Explanation:

Given :Omar jogged a total of
`3(3)/(5)` miles last week.

Each day that he jogged,he went
`(9)/(10)` mile.

To Find : On how many days did he jog?

Solution :

He went for miles in 1 day =
`(9)/(10)`

Let x be the no. of days he jogged.

He went for miles in x day =
`(9)/(10)x`

We are given that Omar jogged a total of
`3(3)/(5)` miles last week.

So,
`(9)/(10)x=3(3)/(5)`

`(9)/(10)x=(18)/(5)`

`x=(180)/(5 * 9)`

`x=4`

Hence He did jog for 4 days .
