Question

Ramon and 2 of his friends will run a relay race. The length of the race is 1/3 mile. If each person runs the same distance, how far will

Ramon run?

Answer 1

Ramon will run 1/9 of a mile.

Explanation:

The relay race is 1/3 of a mile and there are three of them in his relay squad, himself and his two friends.

If three of them finish each sector and each sector is the same, that means that each of the members will run a third of that distance.

`(1/3)/(3)\\=(1)/(3) ((1)/(3) )\\=(1)/(3(3))\\=(1)/(9)`

Answer 2

Ramon will run 1/9 of a mile
