Sagot :

[tex]x-\ distance\ drove\ by\ Bob\\\\ y-\ distance\ drove\ by\ Cheryl\\\\ x=\frac{5}{7}*188,3\\ y=188,3-x=188,3-\frac{5}{7}*188,3=\frac{2}{7}*188,3\\\\ y=53,8\ miles\\\\ x=134,5\ miles\\\\ Bob\ drove\ 134,5\ miles.[/tex]

the total distance of the road trip is 188.3 miles

Both Bob and Cheryl took turns and drove

Bob has driven 5/7th of the total distance

distance Bob has driven - [tex] \frac{5}{7}of188.3miles [/tex]

when the 'of' function is used we have to multiply

[tex] \frac{5}{7}*188.3 = \frac{5*188.3}{7} = 134.5 [/tex]

therefore distance Bob drove is 134.5 miles
