Question 989491
Angela is on her way from home from Jersey City into New York City for dinner. She walks 1 mile to the train station, takes the train 4/5 of the way, and takes a taxi  1/6  of the way to the restaurant. How far does Angela live from the restaurant?
=========================
d = 1 + (4/5)d + (1/6)d
d = 1 + (29/30)d
d - 29d/30 = 1
d/30 = 1
d = 30 miles
