How much farther does Maria bike than Jada?

ANSWER QUICK PLEASE !!

Answer 1

• Jada: 6 3/10.
• Maria: 7 9/10⇔(Total amount of km Maria biked) - 6 3/10 = 1 6/10

Explanation:

Given equations:

• 4 1/2 + 1 4/5
• 7 9/10 - x

Before we subtract, we need to find how far Jada biked.

• 4 1/2 + 1 4/5
• = 4 5/10 + 1 8/10
• = 4 + 1 = 5
• = 5/10 + 8/10 = 13/10
• = 5 + 13/10
• = 5 13/10
• = 6 3/10

Jada biked 6 3/10 km.

Now, let's find how much more km Maria biked more than Jada.

• 7 9/10 - 6 3/10
• = 7 - 6 = 1
• = 9/10 - 3/10 = 6/10
• = 1 + 6/10
• = 1 6/10

• Maria biked 1 6/10 more km than Jada.
