Question

Vanessa exercised by walking around a pond. One day, she walked 3 3/8 mi. The distance around the pond is 3/8 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

if you have done it to can you please help me out

Answer 1

Let n be the number of times she walked around the pond

(3 3/8) / (3/8) = n

=> 9 = n

Vanessa walked around the pond 9 times

Answer 2

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

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

The distance around the pond is 3/8 mi.

So, distance traveled in n rounds = $\frac{3}{8}n$

She walked $3\frac{3}{8}=\frac{27}{8}$

So,  $\frac{3}{8}n=\frac{27}{8}$

$n=\frac{27}{8} \times \frac{8}{3}$

$n=9$

Hence the number of times she walked around the pond is 9
