Final answer:
Priya walked 125% of the distance that Tyler walked; she covered 10 km while Tyler covered 8 km, and the percentage is calculated by dividing Priya's distance by Tyler's distance and then multiplying by 100.
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the percentage of Tyler’s distance that Priya walked, we can set up a ratio of Priya’s distance to Tyler’s distance and then convert that ratio to a percentage.
Priya walked 10 km, while Tyler walked 8 km.
To find the percentage, we divide Priya’s distance by Tyler’s distance and then multiply by 100:
(Priya's distance / Tyler's distance) × 100
= (10 km / 8 km) × 100
Which simplifies to:
(10/8) × 100
= 1.25 × 100
= 125%.
Therefore, Priya walked 125% of the distance that Tyler walked.
