Calculate each mountain path grade to the nearest percent. Path A for every 31 meters of horizontal​ distance, the vertical change is 11 meters Path B for every 4.25 meters of horizontal​ distance, the vertical change is 3 meters?
What we must do in this case is to calculate the slope in each route in a percentage way. Â We have then: Â Path A Â m = (11/31) * (100) = 35.48387097% Â m = 36% Â Path BÂ Â m = (3 / 4.25) * (100) = 70.58823529% Â m = 71% Â Answer:Â Â Path A = 36%Â Â Path B = 71%Â Â Route A is less inclined than route B.
