Rodney travels a distance
of 190 miles in 4 days.
The question wants to find the distance Rodney can travel in
6 days using a ratio table.
The distances travelled per day would be:
Distance travelled in 1
day = (190/4) miles = 47.5 miles
Distance travelled on the 2nd day = (47.5 * 2) miles
= 95 miles
Distance travelled on the 3rd day = ( 47.5 * 3) miles = 142.5
miles
Distance travelled on the 4th day is given and it is 190
miles.
Distance travelled on the 5th day = ( 47.5 * 5) miles
= 237.5 miles
Distance travelled on the 6th day = (47.5 * 6) miles =
285 miles
So this can be put in a ratio table and the distance travelled by Rodney on the 6th day is 285 miles.
