Question

trip decided to go on a vacation to the beach after driving 60% of the way he decided to stop for lunch if you stopped for lunch after driving 240 miles how many total miles will he have to drive

Answer 1

Consider that 240 miles is the 60% of the way. If x is the total distance of the way, it is necessary that:

(60/100)x = 240

solve the previous equation for x:

x = 240(100/60)

x = 400

Hence, the total distance of theway is 400 miles
