Question

A bus went 318km farther than a car. The car went one third as far as the bus. How far did each vehicle travel?
Choices for the car's distance: 147, 151, 159

Answer 1

Answer:

Hi your answer

let c=car's distance b=bus distance

b=c+318

3c=b

3c=c+318

subtract c from each side: 2c=318

divide 2 into each side: c=159 km

b=3*159=477 km

Check:

477-159=318
