Question

Andrew lives 1.7 kilometers from soccer field. He rode his bike 0.9 of the distance to the field. How much farther does Andrew need to ride to reach the soccer field. Include an area model in your answer.

Answer 1

As for how much farther, you just subtract the two given numbers, so the answer is 0.8. The area model might be a little out of my skill level, sorry.

Answer 2

0.9 of the distance is like saying 90% so he only has 10% left to go of 1.7 km

10% of 1.7 km is 0.17 km
Hope this helps!
