Jade ran 6 times around her neighborhood to complete a total of 1 mile. how many times will she need to run to complete 5\6 of a mile?

-- 6 laps around the neighborhood  =  1 mile

-- Each lap  =  1/6 of a mile.

-- 5/6 of a mile requires 5 laps.



Using a proportion:

                       ('L' laps) / (5/6 mile)  =  (6 laps) / (1 mile)

Cross-multiply the proportion:

                       L lap-mile  =  (6) x (5/6) lap-mile

Divide each side by  mile :

                         L lap  =  (6) x (5/6) lap  =  5 lap

This shows to me that one lap is 1/6 so you would multiply 6 by 5 to get you the answer.

If jon had $4.00 then takes away $2.25, then he should have $1.75 left. $4.00 - $2.25 = $1.75 hope this ; )

6/ 11 = 0.545454 so your answer is55%
