Jane is traveling between two towns 60 miles apart. In the first 5 minutes, she traveled 7% of the road. In the next 5 minutes, she traveled 10% of the remaining distance. How far is she from her destination?
\n" ); document.write( "

Distance remaining after 7% of total distance (60 miles), was travelled: 93% of 60 = .93(60) = 55.8 miles\r\n" );
document.write( "After 10% of remaining distance (55.8 miles), was travelled, Distance remaining = 90% of 55.8 = .9(55.8) = 50.22 miles

\n" ); document.write( "

\n" );
