Jose jumped 8 1/3 feet. This was 2 2/3 feet farther than Lila jumped. How far did Lila jump?
Answer: Length of Lila's jump is given by
\(3\frac{4}{3}\ feet\)
Step-by-step explanation:
Since we have given that
Length of jose's jump is given by
\(8\frac{1}{3}=\frac{25}{3}\ feet\)
According to question,
josh jumped \(2\frac{2}{3}\ feet=\frac{8}{3}\ feet\) farther than lila
So, length of lila's jump is given by
\(\frac{25}{3}-\frac{8}{3}\\\\=\frac{25-8}{3}\\\\=\frac{13}{3}\ feet=3\frac{4}{3}\ feet\)
Hence, Length of Lila's jump is given by
\(3\frac{4}{3}\ feet\)
