Question

Mr. Adams drives a

school bus twice a day
for 5 days a week. Each
trip averages 35.8 miles.
In one week, how many
miles does Mr. Adams
drive?

Answer 1

716 miles

Explanation:

There are two trips in one day. One trip averages 35.8 miles. Two trips can be found simply by doing
`35.8` ×
`2` which equals 71.6.

To find out how many miles Mr. Adams drives in one week, we need to know how many times he drives in a week. He only drives 5 times a week, and 2 trips are done in 1 day. In 5 days, 10 trips will be made.

Now simply multiply 71.6 by 10.

`71.6` ×
`10`
`= 716`

The answer is 716 miles.

(this is based on the average amount miles per trip)
