Ramon is coordinating a race that is ¾ of a mile long. He wants to set up a water station every ⅜ of a mile. How many water stations will he need to set up?

Sagot :

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

First you need to get both fractions with a common denominator, so get 3/4 into a fraction with 8 as the denominator.  Multiply the top and bottom by 2, you get 6/8.  Now you divide the total distance by the distance from the water station, and you get 48/24, simplify and this is equal to 2.
