Question

Oliver walks on his treadmill for 3/10 hour at a constant speed of 4 miles per hour. Write the amount of time Oliver walks as a decimal. What is the total distance Oliver walks?

Answer 1

1.2

Explanation:

To express the amount of time Oliver walks as a decimal, you can convert 3/10 hour to a decimal by dividing 3 by 10:

3 ÷ 10 = 0.3

So, Oliver walks for 0.3 hours.

Now, to find the total distance Oliver walks, you can use the formula:

Distance = Speed × Time

Distance = 4 miles per hour × 0.3 hours

Distance = 1.2 miles

Oliver walks a total distance of 1.2 miles.
