Answer:

80km

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to cross multiply. Lets input the values (1.2, 1.0, 96) as shown below:

[tex]\frac{1.2}{96} = \frac{1.0}{x}[/tex]

Next we cross multiply. We multiply 1.2 and x, and we multiply 96 and 1.0.

1.2(x) = 1.2x

96 x 1.0 = 96

Now, lets put the values above back into the equation:

1.2x = 96

Lets solve this equation. First we divide 96 by 1.2.

1. [tex]x = \frac{96}{1.2}[/tex]

2. [tex]x = 80[/tex]

This means that our answer is 80km.
