The Clarks have driven 250 miles on their trip. They have completed 5/8 of their drive. How long is their entire trip?
A: 156 MILES
B: 400 MILES
C: 1250 MILES
D: 2000 MILES

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

250 miles = 5/8 of the ride

So you make a proportion.

(250 miles/x)=(5/8)

(250 x 8) = 5x

2000 = 5x

2000/5 = x

400=x

Therefore, their whole rice is 400 miles long.
