Question

Lin's family has completed 70% of a trip. They have traveled 35 miles. How far is the total distance of the trip? Is it 50 miles?

Answer 1

Answer:

Let the total distance of the trip be x miles.

Now, they have travelled 70%,

So, 70% of x= 35

70/100×X = 35

x= 35×100/70= 50 miles.

Yes the total distance is 50 miles.
