Question

7. Four friends each swim 3/5 of a mile in a relay. What is the total distance they swim?

Answer 1

To find the total distance they swim, we need to multiply the individual distance swam by the number of friends.

Distance swam by each friend = 3/5 mile
Number of friends = 4

Total distance swam = (3/5) mile x 4 friends
Total distance swam = 12/5 mile
Total distance swam = 2.4 miles

Therefore, the total distance they swim is 2.4 miles.

Answer 2

7. Four friends each swim 3/5 of a mile in a relay. What is the total distance they swim?

1 1/2 miles
3 miles
2 2/5 miles
12 3/5 miles

Answer 3

To find the total distance they swim, we need to multiply the individual distance swam by the number of friends.

Distance swam by each friend = 3/5 mile
Number of friends = 4

Total distance swam = (3/5) mile x 4 friends
Total distance swam = 12/5 mile
Total distance swam = 2 2/5 miles

Therefore, the total distance they swim is 2 2/5 miles.

Answer 5

Apologies for the incorrect response earlier. Let's re-calculate the total distance they swim.

Distance swam by each friend = 3/5 mile
Number of friends = 4

Total distance swam = (3/5) mile x 4 friends
Total distance swam = 12/5 mile
Total distance swam = 2 and 2/5 miles

Therefore, the correct total distance they swim is 2 and 2/5 miles.
