jade ran 6 times around her block to complete a total of 1 mile. how many times will she need to run to complete 5/6 of a mile?
5 times
thank you
You're welcome.
5-6
times
To find out how many times Jade needs to run to complete 5/6 of a mile, we can set up a proportion.
Since Jade ran 6 times around her block to complete 1 mile, we have the ratio:
6 times / 1 mile = x times / (5/6) mile
To solve for x, we can cross multiply:
6 * (5/6) = 1 * x
Simplifying the equation, we have:
30/6 = x
So, x = 5 times.
Therefore, Jade will need to run 5 times to complete 5/6 of a mile.
