Question

The Grade 7 class is on a 500 km bus trip to Sault Ste. Marie. It will take about 6 h.
“How much farther till we’re there?” asked Laura.
“How many more hours till we’re there?” asked Shin Soo.
The bus driver replied, “We’ve gone 25% of the way.”
How many kilometres are left in the trip and how long will it take to travel that far?

Answer 1

Answer:

There are 375 kilometres in the trip and 1.5 hours left

Step-by-step explanation:

10% of 500 kilometres: 50

5% of 500 kilometres: 25

25% of 500 kilometres: 125

Using the same formula, you can work out that 25% of 6 hours is 1.5 hours

Therefore giving us a answer of:

375 Kilometres and 1.5 hours
