Question

Dean ran 2.3 fewer kilometers than Sam. If Dean ran 6.8 km, how far did Sam run?

A 2-column table with 4 rows. Column 1 is labeled Situation with entries increasing, difference, finding part of a total, sharing or grouping. Column 2 is labeled Operation with entries +, minus, times, divided by.

Select all that apply.
You know the difference in the distances the boys ran, so this is a subtraction problem.
You are finding the total distance the boys ran, so this is an addition problem.
Dean ran part of the distance Sam ran, so this is a multiplication problem.
The correct equation is s + 2.3 = 6.8.
The correct equation is s – 2.3 = 6.8.
The correct equation is 2.3s = 6.8.

Answer 2

A,E

Explanation:

Operation: Minus

To find how far Sam ran, we need to subtract 2.3 from Dean's distance of 6.8 km.

6.8 km - 2.3 km = 4.5 km

Therefore, Sam ran 4.5 km, since Dean ran 2.3 km fewer than Sam.
