Problema Solution

Sports field is 800 feet long. Write a formula that gives length L of x sports fields in feet. Then use this formula to determine the number of sports fields in 2080 feet.

Answer provided by our tutors

one field = 800' long

L = 800x

(Total Length = 800 feet times X, where X is number of fields)

Plug in 2080 for L (total Length):

2080 = 800x

Solve for x by dividing both sides by 800

2080/800 = 800x/800

2.6 = x
