This math skill teaches how to calculate the run given the slope and rise of a slope. It uses the relationship where slope equals rise over run, and involves rearranging this formula to solve for the run.
🎙️
Let's calculate the run, if we know the slope and rise of this slope.
🎙️
We know that slope is equal to rise over run.
🎙️
So our slope, 3, is equal to 6 over our run.
🎙️
Rearranging, we see that run is equal to 6 over 3, which is 2
