Allison went for a hike. A guide told her that when she reached the giant oak tree she would have completed 80% of the hike. When Allison reached the giant oak tree she had walked 16 kilometers.#3: How many kilometers does Allison have left in the hike?

Answer: 4 kilometers.Step-by-step explanation: You need to analize the information provided in the exercise. You know that: When Allison reached the giant oak tree she would have completed 80% of the hike.When she reached the giant oak tree she had walked 16 kilometers. Knowing this you can find the total kilometers of the hike (which is the 100% of the hike) with the following expression: [tex]\frac{16}{80}=\frac{total}{100}\\\\total=(100)(\frac{16}{80})\\\\total=20\ km[/tex] Let be "x" the amount of kilometers Allison has left in the hike. This can be found with the following subtraction: [tex]x=20\ km-16\ km\\\\x=4\ km[/tex]
