Question

Mr. Cartee walks 2.1 miles on Wednesday, 1.7 miles on Thursday, and 0.9 miles on Friday. If Mr. Veenstra walked three times as far as Mr. Cartee, how many miles did Mr. Veensta walk?

Answer 1

14.1 miles

Explanation:

If Mr Veensta walked 3 TIMES as far as Mr Cartee, then certainly the miles Mr Cartee walked should be multiplied by three; as in the following:

Mr Cartee = 2.1 *(3) + 1.7*(3) + 0.9*(3) = 14.1 (THE MILES MR VEENSTA WALKED!!)
