Algebra Difficulty 1.9 Junior Find the answer
If each of Bill's steps is 21 metre long, how many steps does Bill take to walk 12 metres in a straight line?
A number or a short expression. Fractions can be typed as 3/2, and spacing doesn't matter.
Solution
Since each of Bill's steps is 21 metre long, then 2 of Bill's steps measure 1 m. To walk 12 m, Bill thus takes 12imes2=24 steps.
