Question

Kiran's family took a road trip to Niagara Falls. Kiran slept through the last 62% of the trip. If the total length of the trip was 1000 miles, how many miles had they traveled when Kiran fell asleep?

Answer 1

380 miles

Explanation:

First, find 62% of 1,000:

1,000 • .62 = 620 miles

Next, subtract 620 from 1,000:

1,000 - 620 = 380 miles

The family had traveled 380 miles before Kiran fell asleep
