Sagot :

Given:

The distance from Matt’s home to school is [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

He has biked [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

To find:

How much further does he have to bike?

Solution:

We have,

Total distance from Matt’s home to school = [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

Distance covered = [tex]\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] of a mile.

Remaining Distance = [tex]\dfrac{5}{8}-\dfrac{3}{8}[/tex] of a mile

                                 = [tex]\dfrac{5-3}{8}[/tex] of a mile

                                 = [tex]\dfrac{2}{8}[/tex] of a mile

                                 = [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] of a mile

Matt has [tex]\dfrac{1}{4}[/tex] mile left to bike.

Therefore, the correct option is A.
