Question

An annual bike race is 270 miles long. The distance between City A and City B is 43 miles. About how many times as long as the distance between the two cities is the bike​ race

Answer 1

6.279 times

Explanation:

The bike race is 270 miles long and the distance between City A and City B is 43 miles. To find out how many times longer the bike race is compared to the distance between the two cities, we can divide the length of the bike race by the distance between the cities.

So, we have:

270 miles (length of bike race) ÷ 43 miles (distance between City A and City B) = 6.279 times

Therefore, the bike race is approximately 6.279 times longer than the distance between City A and City B.
