1) A jogging trail is 2 miles. A distance marker is placed every 1/5 mile. How many distance markers are there show how you found your answer

There are 10 ...

To solve this, I will find out how many one-fifths there are in two miles.

The equation 2/1 : 1/5 can show me the answer to this question.

I will have to flip the second fraction to make this into a multiplying fraction.

2/1 * 5/1 = ?

Now I have to multiply across:

2 * 5 = 10 and 1 * 1 = 1

The answer is 10/1, or in simple terms, 10.

There are 10 distant markers in the two-mile trail.
