5th grade math need help! 10 pts!

okay here is the question, Lamont walked 2.7 miles on saturday.On sunday he road his bike 2 and two third miles. On which day did he travel more miles?

Saturday

2.7 > 2.66666666

On Saturday, Lamont walked 2.7 miles, or 2 and 7/10 miles.
On Sunday, he walked 2 and 2/3 miles.
Comparing 2 7/10 and 2 2/3, we must grub he least common deminator (LCM) which is 30.
So 2 7/10 = 27/10 = 81/30
and 2 2/3 = 8/3 = 80/30
81/30 > 80/30
Lamont walked more on Saturday than Sunday.

You can approach the problem through fraction work above or decimals.
On Saturday = 2.7 miles
Sunday = 2 2/3 miles
2 and 2/3 put into a fraction is
2.666666666666666666....
And so on
Bringing us to 2.7 > 2.666666666666666....
Lamont walked more on Saturday than Sunday.

Saturday. 2 and 2/3 miles is 2.66. 2.7 is greater than 2.66.

saturday = 2.7 miles
sunday = 2 and 2/3 miles = 2.667 miles

so saturday was farther

2 and two third miles is equal to 2.66
2.7 miles is greater than 2.66 so saturday is the correct answer

The answer is Saturday. 2 and two third miles is equal to 2.66, so 2.7>2.66.

By only .02 more saturday he traveled farther.

Saturday because on Sunday Lamont walked 2.666 miles.

Saturday=2.7
Subday=2.66

Saturday

I'm in 7th grade.

Saturday

Saturday, I think.

Saturday. to get 2/3 into a decimal to compare it with 2.7 you have to divide the 2 by the 3

He traveled the first day more miles because 2 and two thirds is 2.666666666

Saturday cuz sunday he did 2.6 so is less than sat..

are you really in fifth grade? O_o


wow...you're really young.
