Jin ran 15.2 miles over the weekend.he ran 6.75 miles on saturday.how many miles did he run on saturday?
For order you to solve that all you half to do is subtract 6.75 from 15.2.
Answer:
Jin ran 8.45 miles on Saturday.
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that Jin ran 15.2 miles over the weekend. We can turn this into an equation :
\(15.2(miles)=Saturday+Sunday\)
Being Saturday the total miles he ran on Saturday and Sunday the total miles he ran on Sunday.
Given that he ran 6.75 miles on Saturday (It's a data from the exercise) we can replace this in the equation :
\(15.2(miles)=6.75(miles)+Sunday\)
Solving the equation :
\(15.2(miles)=6.75(miles)+Sunday\)
\(Sunday=15.2(miles)-6.75(miles)=8.45(miles)\)
We find that Jin ran 8.45 miles on Sunday
