Question

Jared is 10 years old and Peter is 15 years old. Together they run 150 yards. How far does each brother run. PLZZ EXPLAIN ANSWER THX ;)

Answer 1

is there any more information in the problem? The info you gave wouldn't be enough to solve the problem.

Answer 2

well

Answer 3

can you provide more info on this question.

Answer 4

on the previous question it explains that the run depends on the ratio of their ages for example, a boy who is twice as old as a girl runs twice as far but in this question the ratios are not half of each other so that is where i am confused?

Answer 5

like one of them says crystal is 12 years old and alexa is 6 years old. if crystal runs 100 yards, how far does alexa run? How far do they run a ltogether

Answer 6

the answer is obviously alexa runs 50 years since crystal runs 100 and crystal is half as more the age of alexa

Answer 7

soooo.... plzzz help with the previous question

Answer 8

peter is 1.5 times older than jared, so peter should run 1.5 times further than jared..

Answer 9

Answer 10

so i guess j + 1.5j = 150

Answer 11

kk

Answer 12

can you solve it from there?

Answer 13

no im in 6 grade lol i started the sixth grade 3 months ago

Answer 14

so when you combine like terms you get 2.5j = 150 and to get j by itself, divide both sides by 2.5. so j = 60

Answer 15

jared ran 60 yards and to find how long peter ran just do 150 - 60
