The distance on the train track between Missouri station and New York station is 26 5/7 miles long. If a train stops two thirds of the way, how many more miles would you have to travel to get to Missouri station

Respuesta :

Answer:

8 19/21 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Total distance between Missouri station and New York=26 5/7

Stop 2/3 of total distance=(2/3)×26 5/7=(2/3)×187/7=17 17/21

Remainder= Total distance-2/3 of total distance=26 5/7-17 17/21

(187/7)-(374/21)=(561-374)/21=187/21=8 19/21 miles
