Question

Drake and Evan are teammates on a high school swim team drake swim 312. 63 m during practice evan swim exactly 1/3 times farther than drake exactly how far did Evan swim?

Answer 1

416.84 m

Explanation:

First Step:

Multiple 312.63 by 1/3

312.63*1/3=104.21

Second Step:

Add 312.63 to 104.21

312.63+104.21=416.84

Answer 2

`✤ \: \underline{ \underline{ \frak{Understanding~the~question : - }}} \\ \\`

In this question, we have been provided that Evan swims 1/3 times farther than Drake, thus, the total distance covered by Evan will be equal to the sum of 312.63 m and the 1/3rd of 312.63 m. Thus, at first we will calculate the one third of the distance and then add them up to get our final answer.

• There are two teammates in a high school team
• Drake swims 312.63 m
• Evan swims 1/3 times farther than Drake

Calculating the one - third,

`\sf \longrightarrow (1)/(3) \: of \: 312.63 \: m \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow (1)/(3) * 312.63 \: m \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow (1)/( \cancel3) * \cancel{312.63} \: m \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow 1 * 104.21 \: m \: \: \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow 104.21 \: m \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\`

Thus,

⠀

`\sf \longrightarrow Distance~covered~by~Evan =312.63 \: m + 104.21 \: m \\ \\ \\ \sf \longrightarrow Distance~covered~by~Evan =416.84 \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \\ \\`

Thus, the distance covered by Evan is 416.84 m.
