Question

Glenda and Penny are doing

a sack race. Glenda jumps
forward 18 inches each time
she jumps. Each of Penny's
hops is 15 Inches. How far from
the starting line will it be when
Glenda and Penny have both
landed at the samne distance?

Answer 1

It depends on how many inches they are from the finish line.

Explanation:

However, they will be at the same distance at 90 inches when Glenda hops 5 times. 18 x 5 = 90. Penny will also make it to 90 inches when she hops 6 times. 15 x 6 = 90. Then, you will subtract 90 inches from how long the race is in inches.

Hope this helps!
