Algebra 2 plz help and explain

Question

find the number that is 1/10 of the way from 30 to 60

Answer 1

The distance between 60 and 30 is given by 60-30 = 30.

1/10 of that distance is given by (1/10)*30 = 3.

So, starting from 30, going 1/10 of the distance to 60 would leave us at 30+3=33.

Answer 2

(60-30)/10 = 30/10 = 3

30+3 = 33
