Given the following question:
15 = 0.25
Write the question as a equation and then solve to find the distance:
[tex]\begin{gathered} 50(x-0.25+0.05)=40x \\ 50\left(x-0.2\right)=40x \\ 50x-10=40x \\ 50x-40x=10 \\ 10x=10 \\ 10x\div10=x \\ 10\div10=1 \\ x=1 \\ 40(1) \\ 40(1)=40 \\ \text{ 40 miles} \end{gathered}[/tex]
