Vanessa exercised by walking around a pond. One day, she walked 338 mi. The distance around the pond is 38 mi.


What equation can be used to find the number of times she walked around the pond?


Let n represent the number of times she walked around the pond.


Drag and drop the appropriate number into each box.

Respuesta :

Since, the total distance around the pond = 38 miles.

Total distance exercised by Vanessa on a particular day = 338 miles

We have to determine the number of times she walked around the pond.

Let 'n' represent the number of times she walked around the pond.

The number of times Vanessa walked around the pond is given by the equation as:

[tex]38 \times n = 338[/tex]

So, Vanessa walked [tex]n = \frac{338}{38}[/tex] rounds around the pond.

Answer:

[tex]38n=338[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let n represent the number of times Vanessa walked around the pond.

We have been given that the distance around the pond is 38 miles.  Distance covered in n rounds would be [tex]38n[/tex].

We are also told that Vanessa walked 338 miles one day.

This means that distance covered in n rounds will be equal to 338. We can represent this information in an equation as:

[tex]38n=338[/tex]

Therefore, the equation [tex]38n=338[/tex] can be used to find the number of times she walked around the pond.

[tex]\frac{38n}{38}=\frac{338}{38}[/tex]

[tex]n=8.89473684[/tex]

[tex]n\approx 8.89[/tex]
