Danny tested how far his new Hot Racer could travel along a wooden track. The Hot Racer traveled 40 meters. Danny's teacher said that was 5/6 of the track's length. How long was the track?
t = track length
5/6 * t = 40 multiply both sides by 6/5
t = 40 * 6/5 = 48 meters
distance b/w Danny and Hot Racer = 40 meters
⇒ 40 = \( {5 \over 6}\frac{}{}\)* track's length
⇒ track's length = 40 * \( {6 \over 5}\frac{}{}\)
⇒ track's length = 8*6 = 48 meter
