Question

Orville and Wilbur Wright flew the first airplane on December 17, 1903. Wilbur flew 1027 feet. The total distance flown that day was 1347 feet. If f stands for the distance Orville flew, which of the following equations could be used to find the value of f?

Answer 1

$Given \: Total \: distance \: flown = 1347 \:feet$

$Distance \: Wilbur \: flew = 1027 \: feet$

$Distance \: Oraville \: flew = f \: feet$

$\implies f = Total \: distance - Distance \:Wilbur \: flew$

$= 1347 \:feet - 1027 \:feet$

$= 320 \:feet$

Therefore .,

$\red{ Value \: of \: f } \green { = 320\:feet }$
