Alexia has completed 3/4 of her daily run. She jogs 5 miles everyday. How many more miles does alexia have to jog to complete her daily run

Respuesta :

Answer:

[tex]1.25\ miles[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> miles required to complete the daily run

we know that

Alexia has completed 3/4 of her daily run

Her daily run is 5 miles

so

Alexia has completed (3/4)(5) miles

To find out the miles required to complete the daily run subtract the miles completed from her daily run

so

[tex]x=5-\frac{3}{4}(5)[/tex]

[tex]x=5-\frac{15}{4}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{5}{4}\ miles[/tex]

[tex]x=1.25\ miles[/tex]
