on their way to summer camp, Priscilla's family drive 135miles and stopped for gasoline. Then they drove 40 more miles to the camp. Clifton's family also drove to the camp, but they drove half as far as Priscilla's family. Write a numerical expression to represent the distance Clifton's family drove.

Respuesta :

Lets say Priscillas's family total drove P miles.
and Clifton's family drove C miles
now Clifton drove half as far as Priscilla drove.
so C=P/2   this is the expression

If Priscilla drove total 135+40=  175miles
And Clifton drove C=175/2=87.5miles
