To find out how many times farther Bertha's dive ended from the starting platform compared to Vernon's dive, we need to calculate the ratio of the distances.
The distance of Bertha's dive from the starting platform is -45m and the distance of Vernon's dive from the starting platform is -9m.
To calculate the ratio, we need to divide the distance of Bertha's dive by the distance of Vernon's dive: -45m / -9m = 5.
Thus, Bertha's dive ended 5 times farther from the starting platform than Vernon's dive.
Bertha and Vernon are competing in a diving competition. Bertha’s dive ended -45 m from the starting platform. Vernon‘s dive ended -9m from the starting platform. How many times father was the end of Bertha’s dive than the end of Vernon‘s dive from the platform
