Question

Когда турист проехал 3 восьмых всего пути между двумя городами, то до половины пути ему осталось проехать 16 км. Найдите расстояние между городами. Дайте ответ в километрах.

Answer 1

X - весь путь
3/8x+1/2x+15=x
x - 7/8x = 15км
15км=1/8x
x=8*15
x = 120км

Answer 2

Problem Analysis

We are given that a tourist has traveled 3/8 of the total distance between two cities and has 16 km remaining to reach the halfway point. We need to find the distance between the two cities.

Solution

Let's assume the total distance between the two cities is represented by x km.

According to the given information, the tourist has traveled 3/8 of the total distance, which is equal to (3/8) * x km.

We are also given that the remaining distance to reach the halfway point is 16 km.

To find the distance between the two cities, we can set up the following equation:

(3/8) * x + 16 = (1/2) * x

Simplifying the equation:

(3/8) * x + 16 = (1/2) * x

Multiplying both sides of the equation by 8 to eliminate the fraction:

3x + 128 = 4x

Subtracting 3x from both sides of the equation:

128 = x

Therefore, the distance between the two cities is 128 km.

Answer

The distance between the two cities is 128 km.
