Sandra lives 14 miles away from her workplace. how many miles does she drive to and from work in five days if she returns home in the middle of each day for lunch?

280

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance traveled to and from work is 28 miles each day and you do that twice a day for 5 days means 28x10=280

Hi there!

So we know for a fact that she lives 14 miles away from home.

In a day :

1. She leaves her house in the morning to go to work = 14 miles

2. She leaves work to go back to her house for lunch = 14 miles

3. She leaves her house after lunch to go back to work = 14 miles

4. She leaves work at the end of the day to go back to her house = 14 miles

In a day, she drives 14 miles 5 times.

14 × 5 = 200 miles per day

Whe want to know how many miles she drives to and from work in 5 days, which means that we need to multiply the number of miles she drives in a day by 5 :

200 × 5 = 1000 miles

Your Sandra drives a total of 1000 miles to and from work in five days.

There you go! I really hope this helped, if there's anything just let me know! :)

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
