Matt's family traveled 3/8 of the distance to his grandmother’s house on Saturday. They traveled 3/5 of the remaining distance on Sunday. What fraction of the total distance to his grandmother’s house was traveled on Sunday?

Respuesta :

Answer:

3/8

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's use a sample number of 100 miles

If 3/8 was traveled the first day, then 37.5m were traveled on the first day.

Now on Sunday, there are 62.5m remaining in the trip. They travel 3/5 of that, meaning they went 62.5 * 3/5m. This turns out to be 37.5 miles that were traveled on Sunday.

37.5/100 = 3.8
