Omar left his house and rode his bike into town at 6mph. along the way he got a flat tire so he had to turn around and walk his bike back to his house traveling 2mph. if the trip down and back took 16hours, how many miles did he get before his tire went flat?

He get 24 miles before his tire went flat.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of miles he get before his tire went flat be 'x'.

Speed at which he left his house and rode his bike into town = 6 mph

Speed at which he got a flat tire so he had to turn around and walk his bike back to his house = 2 mph

Total time taken by the trip down and back = 16 hours

According to question,

Hence, he get 24 miles before his tire went flat.

unless you made a typo, the answers are both a and c.

step-by-step explanation:

1.5/3 is .5 whereas 3/9 is .3333333 not proportional

22/33 is .66666 and 4/6 is also .66666 proportional

2/4 is .5 whereas 142/213 is .66666 not proportional

14/7 is 2 and 7/3.5 is also 2 proportional

you could've also checked it by doing this simple division:

if the larger fraction divides with the smaller fraction to equal 1, it is proportional. so let me show you what i mean:

when i divide 22/33 by 4/6 i get 1, so we know it is proportional, and it is the same with 14/7 and 7/3.5. now if i divide 3/9 by 1.5/3 i get .66666 so therefore we know it is not proportional.

there are many ways to do this so i wanted to show you some possible ways.

wait this depends wether emily and zach how they are thinking.

yes they are the same.
