Respuesta :

Leah's family took a road trip to Mount Rushmore. Leah fell asleep 44% of the way through the trip. the total length of the trip is 190.08 miles.

How to find the percentage from the total value?

Suppose the value of which a thing is expressed in percentage is "a'

Suppose the percent that considered thing is of "a" is b%

Thus, that thing in number is

[tex]\dfrac{a}{100} \times b[/tex]

Leah's family took a road trip to Mount Rushmore. Leah fell asleep 44% of the way through the trip.

If Leah fell asleep after they had traveled 132 miles

So,

44% of 132

= 0.44  x 132

= 58.08

Add in the miles they already traveled

132 + 58.08

= 190.08

Thus, the total length of the trip is 190.08 miles.
