Question

Ashley is on her way home in her car. She has driven 18 miles so far, which is two-thirds of the way home. What is the total length of her drive?

____ Miles

Answer 1

27 miles

Explanation:

2/3rds of the way home is 18 miles

2/3 d = 18

Multiply each side by 3/2

3/2 * 2/3 = 18 *3/2

d = 27

The distance is 27 miles
