The National park service is building a 16-mile trail. They will post a sign every 1/8 mile along the trail, including one at the end. There will not be a sign posted at the beginning of the trail. How many signs will they post along the trail? Please can you show me how you got your answer please.

128 signs will be posted along the trail

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question,

The national park service is building a 16-mile trail and they will post a sign every 1/8 mile along the trail. To determine how many signs will be posted along the trail, we will divide the length of the trail by the distance in which one sign is to be posted from another.

The length of the trail = 16 mile

The distance in which one sign is to be posted from another = 1/8 mile

Hence,

Number of signs that will be posted along the trail = 16 mile ÷ 1/8 mile

= 16 × 8/1 = 128

Number of signs that will be posted along the trail = 128

This includes the sign that will be posted at the end of the trail.

Since there will not be a sign posted at the beginning of the trail, then

128 signs will be posted along the trail.

30 miles

step-by-step explanation:

we know that 60 seconds equals 1 minute and 60 minutes 1 hour

44 ft       60 sec     60 min     158400   ft

  *   *   =

1 sec       1 min       1 hour         hour

we know that there are 5280 ft per mile

158400   ft       1 mile         30 miles

  *   =

1   hour               5280 ft     1 hour

so in 1 hour   it can travel 30 miles
