Problema Solution
During a camping trip in the North Woods in Canada, a couple went one-third of the way by boat, 15 miles by foot, and one-sixth of the way by horse. How long was the trip?
Answer provided by our tutors
we have 1/3 + 1/6 = 3/6 = 1/2 by boaqt and horse
so remaining was by foot
so let total was x
so x* 1/2 = 15
so journey is x = 2 * 15 = 30 miles
