A ferry carries passengers a distance of 3 5/8 smiles across a river. The ferry made 33 trips across the river in one day, which of the following is true, a the fairy travel, 23 and 14/41 miles in one day be the ferry traveled night 119 over and 5/8 total miles in one day see the ferry traveled seven and 130/33 miles a day the ferry traveled five and 27/41 miles a day
The ferry traveled 119 and 5/8 miles in one day.
To find out the total distance traveled by the ferry in one day, we need to multiply the distance of each trip by the number of trips made.
The distance traveled in one trip is 3 5/8 miles.
The number of trips made in one day is 33.
To calculate the total distance traveled in one day, we can use the following steps:
Step 1: Convert the mixed number 3 5/8 to an improper fraction.
3 5/8 = (3 * 8 + 5)/8 = 29/8 miles
Step 2: Multiply the distance per trip by the number of trips made.
29/8 * 33 = (29 * 33)/(8) = 957/8 miles
Therefore, the ferry traveled a total distance of 957/8 miles in one day.
To determine the total distance traveled by the ferry in one day, we need to multiply the distance of each trip by the total number of trips.
The distance of each trip is given as 3 5/8 miles. To convert this mixed number into an improper fraction, we need to find a common denominator.
3 5/8 can be written as (3 * 8 + 5)/8 = 29/8 miles.
So, the distance of each trip is 29/8 miles.
Next, we need to calculate the total distance traveled in one day by multiplying the distance of each trip by the total number of trips.
The total number of trips is given as 33.
Multiply 29/8 by 33:
(29/8) * 33 = 957/8 miles.
Therefore, the ferry traveled 957/8 miles in one day.
To simplify the answer, we can convert 957/8 into a mixed number.
957 divided by 8 is 119 with a remainder of 5.
So, the simplified answer is 119 5/8 miles.
Therefore, the correct statement is: "The ferry traveled 119 and 5/8 miles in one day."
