Question

The total length of a road trip was 16.2 hours. If highway signs are posted every 0.6 hours, including one at the end of the road trip, how many highway signs will there be on the road trip?

Answer 1

To find the number of highway signs on the road trip, we need to divide the total length of the trip by the time between each sign, including the last one.

First, we need to find out how many signs are posted during the trip. To do this, we can divide the total length of the trip by the time between each sign:

16.2 / 0.6 = 27

So there will be 27 signs posted during the trip, including one at the end.

Therefore, there will be 27 highway signs on the road trip.
