Katie walked ⅚ mile on Saturday. It took her 10 mins to walk ⅙ mile. She took 1 minute breaks in between each ⅙ mile. How long did it take her to finish her walk?

Respuesta :

Answer:

it took her 54 mins to finish her walk.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

total distance walked by Katie, d = ⁵/₆

time taken to walk ¹/₆ mile = 10 mins

break time = 1 min

There are five ¹/₆ mile in the total distance which is ⁵/₆ miles.

Time for the first  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                    break time = 1 min

Time for the second  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                     break time = 1 min  

Time for the third  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                     break time = 1 min  

Time for the fourth  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins +

                     break time = 1 min  

Time for the fifth  ¹/₆ mile  = 10 mins

Total time = 5 (10 mins)  + 4 (1 min)

                 = 50 mins + 4mins

                = 54 mins

Therefore, it took her 54 mins to finish her walk.
