jade ran 6 times around her neighborhood to complete a total of 1 miles. How many time will she need to run to complete 5/6 of a mile?

Sagot :

Since 6 laps around her neighborhood equals 1 mile, you can show one lap around the block as 1/6 of a mile. In order to complete 5/6 of a mile she will need to run 5 times around the neighborhood since 1/6 + 1/6 +1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 5/6. 
5 times because if running 6 times around it gets you a mile then running 5 times will get you. 5/6 miles.....each time around is 1/6 so 1/6 + 1/6 +1/6 + 1/6 + 1/6 = 5/6 + 1/6 = 6/6 which is a mile
