Question

benji rode his bike from one city to another city over the course of 4 days. his average distance was 39.2 miles each day. let b represent the total number of miles benji biked. write a division equation that can be used to find the total number of miles biked. use 4, 39.2, and b.

Explanation:

Step1: Recall average formula

Average distance per day = Total miles ÷ Number of days. So, \( 39.2 = \frac{b}{4} \), which can be rewritten as \( b \div 4 = 39.2 \).

Step2: Identify values for division

Here, total miles is \( b \), number of days is 4, and average is 39.2. So the division equation is \( b \div 4 = 39.2 \).

Answer:

\( b \div 4 = 39.2 \) (So the boxes should be filled with \( b \), \( 4 \), and \( 39.2 \) respectively)
