Question

Kyle runs 5 days a week. On Sunday he runs half of his weekly distance. On monday he runs 1/4 of the remaining distance for the week. What fraction of the weekly distance remains to be run?

A. 1/8
B. 1/4
C. 3/8
D. 3/4

Answer 1

B. 1/4

Explanation:

We can use the distance = rate ⋅ time formula to find the distance Lee traveled. The formula d = rt looks like this when we plug in the numbers from the problem. The unknown distance is represented with the variable d. To find d, all we have to do is multiply 65 and 2.5.
