Which estimate is closest to the distance, in miles, Ryan rides to cool down?
A. 3 B. 6 C. 9
D. 12

Respuesta :

B. 6 While Ryan is training for 44 1/2 miles. He needs to find the common denominator of 4/5 and 1/3 = 12/15+ 5/15 =17/15 or 1 and 2/15 x 89/2 which equals 89/15 =5.9 So the estimate of the closest distance is 6.
