There are two routes Lucas can take to walk to school. Route A is 2 and StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction miles and is StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction mile longer than route B. The equation b + StartFraction 3 over 8 EndFraction = 2 and StartFraction 1 over 8 EndFraction can be used to represent this situation, where b is the length of route B. How many miles will Lucas walk if he takes route B? 1 and one-half miles 1 and three-fourths miles 2 and one-fourth miles 2 and one-half miles

Respuesta :

Answer:

1 and 3/4

Explanation:

If Lucas walks through route B, the length of route B is 1 and 3/4 miles. Then the correct option is B.

What is Algebra?

The analysis of mathematical representations is algebra, and the handling of those symbols is logic.

There are two routes Lucas can take to walk to school.

Route A is 2 and 1/8 miles, and Route A is 3/8 mile longer than route B.

The equation b + 3/8 = 2 + 1/8  can be used to represent this situation, where b is the length of route B.

Then the value of b will be

b + 3/8 = 2 + 1/8

b + 3/8 = 17/8

        b = 17/8 – 3/8

        b = 14/8

        b = 7 / 4

        b = 1 + 3/4

Then the correct option is B.
