Question

Kim is competing in a 40-mile bicycle race. She has completed 65% of the race. How many miles does Kim have left to cycle? A. 12 miles B. 14 miles C. 26 miles D. 28 miles​

Answer 1

She completed 65% so she has 35% more to go. ( 100% - 65% = 35%)

Multiply the length of the race by the percentage left:

40 x 0.35 = 14

She has 14 miles left.

The answer is B. 14 miles
