On Monday, Kacie complete 40% of the total miles she wanted to run for the week. If she wanted to run 20 miles during the week, how many miles did she run on Monday?

Respuesta :

Answer:

8 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that on Monday, Kacie complete 40% of the total miles she wanted to run for the week. She wanted to run 20 miles during the week. We are asked to find the distance covered by Kacie on Monday.

To find the distance covered by Kacie on Monday, we need to find 40% of 20 miles as:

[tex]\text{Distance covered by Kacie on Monday}=\frac{40}{100}\times 20\text{ Miles}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Distance covered by Kacie on Monday}=\frac{40}{5}\times 1\text{ Miles}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Distance covered by Kacie on Monday}=8\text{ Miles}[/tex]

Therefore, Kacie ran 8 miles on Monday.
