If the total distance is 0.8km we need to multiply that amount by the proportion that she ran, which was 0.25 (one quarter or 25%).
So 0.8km x 0.25 = 0.2km
Looking another way, the word 'of' often means the same as 'multiply', so
0.25 of 0.8km = 0.25 x 0.8km = 0.2km
Joanie ran a total of 0.2km during her lunch break.
The distance she ran during the break is a proportion of the total distance around the park.
She ran 0.2 miles during her lunch break
Given that:
[tex]d = 0.8mi[/tex] --- the distance around Cedar Park
[tex]p = 0.25[/tex] --- the proportion Joanie ran
The actual distance ran Joanie ran is calculated by multiplying the total distance by the proportion she ran.
So, we have:
[tex]Distance = d \times n[/tex]
[tex]Distance = 0.8mi \times 0.25[/tex]
[tex]Distance = 0.2mi[/tex]
Hence, she ran 0.2 miles during her lunch break
