Question

The Jones family traveled 314 miles each day until they reached their destination, which is 1,256 miles away from their starting point. How many days did they drive until they arrived at their destination?

A)314x = 628;
x = 2
B)314x = 972;
x = 3
C)314x = 1256;
x = 4(My answer)
D)314x = 1570;
x = 5

Answer 1

314 x = 1256

(314/314)x = 1256/4 divide both sides by 314
so 1 x = 1256/314 = 4 , agree

Answer 4

To solve this problem, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the distance traveled per day.

The Jones family traveled 314 miles each day until they reached their destination, which is 1,256 miles away from their starting point.

So, we divide 1,256 by 314:

1,256 / 314 = 4

Therefore, the correct answer is C) 4.

The Jones family drove for 4 days until they arrived at their destination.
