Math Challenge April 5



An odometer measures how many miles a car has traveled. The odometer on Jeff’s car isn’t working properly. Every time the odometer measures 1 mile, Jeff has really only traveled 0.8 of a mile. The odometer now reads an even 100 miles.

How many miles has Jeff really traveled?
