Question

Derek's family traveled 3/10 of the distance to his aunts house on Saturday. they traveled 3/7 of the remaining distance on Sunday. what of the total distance to his aunts house was traveled on Sunday

Answer 1

3/10

Explanation:

The total distance to Derek's aunt's house will be 10/10 of the distance. If 3/10 of the distance is traveled on Saturday, then ...

10/10 -3/10 = 7/10

of the total distance remains to be traveled.

3/7 of that remaining distance is traveled on Sunday. The fraction of the total distance that represents is ...

`(3)/(7)*(7)/(10)=(3)/(10)\cdot(7)/(7)=(3)/(10)`

3/10 of the total distance to his aunt's house was traveled on Sunday.
