Javier drove 45 miles. This represents 60% of his entire trip. What is the total number of miles in Javier's trip?

Sagot :

.6x=45     .6=3/5    3x/5=45  x=(5/3)*45     x=75    the total miles in his trip is 75 
60% of trip = 45 miles

let total trip distance = [tex]l[/tex]

60% is given by multiplying by 0.6

So;

[tex]0.6l = 45 \\ \\ l = \frac{45}{0.6} \\ \\ \boxed{l = 75}[/tex]
