A team of swimmers need to swim a 1/4- mile race. If each swimmer must swim 1/24 mile, how many swimmers will be needed?

Respuesta :

Answer:

You would need 6 swimmers.

Answer:

6 swimmers

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's set up an equation:

1/24(x)=1/4

Divide both sides by 1/24. When you divide by a fraction, you multiply by its reciprocal.

x=1/4*24

x=6

6 swimmers will be needed
