Answer:
Part A: 2.8 miles
Part B: 16.8 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
First, solve for how many miles Ted jogged in 1 day:
Variable x = number of miles
11.2/4 = x/1
Cross multiply
11.2 × 1 = 4 × x
11.2 = 4x
Divide both sides by 4
2.8 = x
He jogged 2.8 miles every day.
To find how many miles Ted would jog in 6 days, simply multiply his miles per day by the number of days he will jog:
2.8 miles × 6 days = 16.8 miles in 6 days
