Miguel is returning from a trip. In 4 hours he has driven 2/3 of the total distance. He wants to know how long the total drive will take. At this rate what is the total time it will take him to reach his destination
6 hour
8/3 hours
8 hours
12 hours
If Miguel has driven 2/3 of the total distance in 4 hours, then he has 1/3 of the total distance left to drive.
To find the total time it will take him to reach his destination, we can set up a proportion.
If 2/3 of the distance takes 4 hours, then 1/3 of the distance will take x hours.
(2/3)/(1/3) = 4/x
Cross-multiplying:
2x = 12
x = 6
Therefore, it will take Miguel 6 hours to reach his destination.
