Each adult drove 179.2 kilometers
Solution:
Given that, Hiro's family lives 896 kilometers from the beach
Each of the five adults drove the family van an equal distance to get to beach
Distance between house and beach = 896 kilometers
Therefore,
Each of five adults drive equal distance to cover the total distance of 896 kilometers
To find: Distance drove by each adult
Since there are 5 adults,
[tex]\text{Distance drove by each adult} = \frac{\text{ Total distance }}{5}[/tex]
[tex]\text{Distance drove by each adult} = \frac{896}{5}\\\\\rightarrow \frac{896}{5} = 179.2[/tex]
Therefore, each adult drove 179.2 kilometers
