The distance to school from Steven's house is 3/5 of a mile. Steven walked 2/3 of the way there and stopped to rest. How far did Steven travel before he stopped to rest?

2/5 of a Mile

Step-by-step explanation:

Total mikes from school to Steven house = 3/5 of a Mile

If Steven walked 2/3 of the way there, the distance he walked =2/3×3/5 = 2/5

If he stopped the rest, then the distance he travelled before stopping is 2/5 of a Mile

25% is the answer

5=812a+9+3

step 1: simplify both sides of the equation.

5=812a+9+3

5=(812a)+(9+3)(combine like terms)

5=812a+12

5=812a+12

step 2: flip the equation.

812a+12=5

step 3: subtract 12 from both sides.

812a+12−12=5−12

812a=−7

step 4: divide both sides by 812.

812a /812 = -7/812

a= -1/116

so the answer is

a=   -1/116
