Word problem:
A delivery truck travels a distance of 9.2735 x 10^2 kilometers in a single day. If the driver delivers packages equally to 5 different locations along the route, how much distance does the truck cover for each delivery location?
Solution:
To find the distance covered for each delivery location, we need to divide the total distance traveled by the number of delivery locations.
Total distance traveled = 9.2735 x 10^2 kilometers
Number of delivery locations = 5
Distance covered for each delivery location = (9.2735 x 10^2) / 5
Distance covered for each delivery location = 1.8547 x 10^2 kilometers
Using the table of distances, make up your own word problem that would
require someone to use division to solve. Write the problem, and provide the
solution.
