Answer:
Fraction of the distance still needed to be covered = 1-\frac{4}{5} =\frac{5}{5} -\frac{4}{5} =\frac{1}{5}
\frac{5}{5} of the distance = 400m
\frac{1}{5} of the distance = \frac{1}{5} *400 = 400 ÷ 5=80.
The tortoise still has to cover 80m.

Answer:
The total length= 400 m
distance finished= 4/5 of 400
= 4/5*400
= 320m
distance left= 400-320 = 80m
the total distance he need to finish is 80m
hope this helps you!!
