Study Notes
Problem 1: Distance and Time
- Archie walks 1 mile in 1/3 hour, so his rate of walking is 1 mile / (1/3 hour) = 3 miles per hour.
- To find the distance he can walk in 3 hours, multiply his rate by the time: 3 miles/hour × 3 hours = 9 miles.
- Therefore, Archie can walk 9 miles in 3 hours.
Problem 2: Selecting Equations
- Equations that are true when the number is 7 are:
- 4÷?=4/7 → 4÷7=4/7
- 1÷7=? → 1÷7=1/7
- These two equations are true when the number is 7.
This quiz challenges students to calculate the distance Archie can walk in 3 hours, given his speed of walking 1 mile in 1/3 hour. By converting the time unit and using the formula distance = speed * time, students can easily determine the distance Archie can cover in 3 hours.
