Question

1. For every 1/4 mi Pascal walks, Lucien runs 2/3 mi. How many miles does Pascal walk for every 1 mi Lucien runs? Write your answers in the blanks. Write a complete sentence to answer the question.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1/4:2/3 = x:3/3

cross multiply

1/4         x

2/3       1

2/3x=1/4

divide by 2/3 on both sides..

when you divide a fraction you multiply by its reciprocal

1    3      3

4   2       8

so when lucien runs a mile, pascal walks 3/8 of a mile
