Answer
Find out the how far has Rita hiked .
To prove
Let us assume that the rita hiked distance be x.
As given
rita is hiking along a trail that is 13.7 miles long.
she has hiked along [tex]\frac{1}{10}[/tex] of this trail.
Than the equation becomes
[tex]x = \frac{1\times 13.7}{10}[/tex]
x = 1.37 miles
Therefore Rita hiked 1.37 miles of the a trail that is 13.7 miles long.
