Question

I need help I’ve done this problem so many times I don’t get it

Answer 1

Answer: 21 more miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Gabriel ran
`1(1)/(5)`

Logan ran
`2(1)/(4)`

now we change to an improper fraction

Gabriel
`(6)/(5)`

Logan
`(9)/(4)`

now we find their LCM

LCM of 5 and 4 is 20

we convert the fraction into a number in order to know the miles taken by the two boys

Gabriel

`(6)/(5)`×20 = 5÷20

=4

6×4=24miles

Logan

`(9)/(4)`×20=4÷20

=5

9×5=45miles

how long Logan took more than Gabriel

45-24=21miles more

Answer 2

1 1/20 more miles than the other person
