While traveling to his grandma for his George fell asleep a fifth of the way through the journey when he awoke he still had to travel a quarter of the distance that he had traveled while sleeping. For what part of the journey had he been asleep

George fell asleep when he had traveled 1/5 of the total distance, slept 3/5 of the distance and he awoke up when he's still 1/5 away from his grandma

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

George fell asleep a fifth of the way

He awoke up when he still had to travel a quarter of the distance that he had traveled while sleeping

2. For what part of the journey had he been asleep?

George fell asleep a fifth of the way: 1/5 of the total distance traveled and 4/5 of the distance away from his grandma

When he awoke up = 1/4 * 4/5 = 1/5

He had been asleep = 5/5 - 1/5 - 1/5 = 3/5

It means George fell asleep when he had traveled 1/5 of the total distance, slept 3/5 of the distance and he awoke up when he's still 1/5 away from his grandma
