the national park service is building a 16 mile hiking trail. They will post a sign every 1/8 mile along the trail, including one at the end. There will not be a sign posted at the beginning of the trail. How many signs will they post along the trail?

Respuesta :

Answer: There are 2 signs will be posted along the trail.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Total length of hiking trail = 16 miles

They will post a sign every [tex]\dfrac{1}{8}\ mile[/tex] along the trail, including one at the end.

No sign posted at the beginning of the trail.

Number of signs will be posted along the trail is given by

[tex]\dfrac{1}{8}\times 16\\\\=2[/tex]

Hence, there are 2 signs will be posted along the trail.

Using the concept of divison, the number of signs which will be posted along the trial is 128

The length of trail = 16 miles

Position of sign = every 1/8 mile

The number of signs can be calculated thus :

  • Length of trail × position of sign

Number of signs = 16 ÷ 1/8 = 128 signs

Therefore, there will be a total of 128 signs posted along the trail.
