Question

Deon is on his way home in his car. He has driven 24miles so far, which is one-half of the way home. What is the total length of his drive?

Answer 1

Given:

a.) He has driven 24miles so far, which is one-half of the way home.

Let's compute the total length that he must drive.

`\text{ 24 }/\text{ }(1)/(2)\text{ = }\frac{\text{24}}{1}\text{ x }(2)/(1)`
`\text{ = }(48)/(1)\text{ = 48}`

Therefore, the answer is 48 miles.
