Question

a car travel 1/6 of a mile of the distance between two cites in 3/5 of an hour at this rate what is the fraction it will take to get to between the two cites

Answer 1

3/5 hour, 1/6 distance was covered.

1 hour = (1/6 ÷ 3/5)

= 1/6 * 5/3 = 5/18.

5/18 of the distance would be covered.

Answer 2

3/5 is 2/5 less than one whole

We need to find how much they traveled in 2/5 of an hour and add that to 1/6

In 1/5 of an hour, they traveled 1/18 of a mile

(1/18)*2=1/9

1/9+1/6=10/36

10/36=5/18

They traveled 5/18 in one hour
