Question
A motorist travelled 122 kilometres before his first stop. If he had 10% of his journey to complete at this point, how long was the total ride?
Solution
Let the length of total ride be x km.
Then, 10 % of x = 122
\[ \Rightarrow \frac{10}{100}x = 122\]
\[ \Rightarrow x = 1220\]
∴ The length of total ride is 1, 220 km.

Sunscreens block harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays produced by the sun. Each sunscreen has a Sun Protection Factor (SPF) that tells you how many minutes you can stay in the sun before you receive one minute of burning UV rays. For example, if you apply sunscreen with SPF 15, you get 1 minute of UV rays for every 15 minutes you stay in the sun.
