Janice walks a total of 7/8
hour. She walks at a rate of 1 mile every 14 hour. How many miles did she walk?(1 point)
miles
To find the distance Janice walked, we need to multiply her rate by the total time she walked.
Rate: 1 mile every 14 hour
Time: 7/8 hour
Distance = Rate x Time
Distance = (1 mile / 14 hour) x (7/8 hour)
Distance = 7/112 mile
Simplifying the fraction, we get:
Distance = 1/16 mile
Therefore, Janice walked 1/16 mile.
wrong
I apologize for the mistake.
To find the distance Janice walked, we need to divide the total time she walked by her rate.
Rate: 1 mile every 14 hours
Time: 7/8 hour
Distance = Time / Rate
Distance = (7/8 hour) / (1/14 hour)
Distance = (7/8) x (14/1)
Distance = 7 x 14 / 8
Distance = 98 / 8
Distance = 12 1/4 miles
Therefore, Janice walked 12 1/4 miles.
