Answer:
10.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
(7/10 x 5) + (1 4/10 x 5) = 10.5 miles
Answer: 10.5 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Find out how many miles she walks in a day by adding the two fractions together:
[tex]\frac{7}{10}[/tex] + [tex]1\frac{4}{10}[/tex], you can re-write the second fraction in a non-simplified way by multiplying the denominator (10) by the number 1 and then adding the numerator (4) to that getting you [tex]\frac{14}{10}[/tex] so we can substitute that in for our second fraction and add them together like this:
[tex]\frac{7}{10} + \frac{14}{10} = \frac{21}{10}[/tex]
so that is how many miles they walk in a day. To get how many miles they walk in 5 days multiply that by 5:
[tex]\frac{21}{10} x \frac{5}{1} = \frac{105}{10}[/tex]
we can simplify the fraction. To do so we see how many times 105 can be divided by 10. Which is 10 times leaving a remainder of 5. So the simplified version would be:
[tex]10\frac{5}{10}[/tex]
[tex]\frac{5}{10}[/tex] can be simplified down even more (not sure if you need to do this or not):
[tex]10\frac{1}{2} miles[/tex]
