It takes sofia c minutes to cycle from the library to the mall. it takes 1/8 of the time cycling to travel the same distance walking. walking takes w minutes. write an equation relating c and w. find the time it would take sophia to cycle the distance if she walks in 44 minuets.

Equation: w = (1/8) c
c at w = 44 minutes is 352 minutes

Explanation:
We are given that:
1- Time taken to cycle from library to mall is c minutes
2- Time taken to walk from library to mall is w minutes
3- Time taken to walk = 1/8 time taken to cylcle
Therefore:
w = (1/8) c
Now, we want to find c if w = 44 minutes
All we do is substitute with the w in the equation and get c as follows:
w = (1/8) c
44 = (1/8) c
c = 44*8 = 352 minutes

Hope this helps :)
