Question

Sharon drives 1/3 of the total distance to big bend on the first day. On the second day, she travels 1/3 of the total distance in the morning and 1/6 of the total distance in the afternoon. How much of the total distance has sharon driven by the end of the day?

Answer 1

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Fraction of total distance driven on first day = 1/3

Second day :

Fraction driven in the morning = 1/3

Fraction driven in the afternoon = 1/6

Total distance driven by the end of the day :

1/3 + 1/3 + 1/6

Take the L. C. M

(2 + 2 + 1) / 6

= 5 /6

5/6 of the total distance
