Question

Martha likes to walk around a park near her house the park is square 7/10 miles on each side one morning she walked around the park 3 and 1/2 times before stopping to rest how far has she walked

Answer 1

Hey there,
Total distance = 7 / 10 x 4
                       = 2 4/5 miles
3 times = 2 4/5 x 3
            = 8 2/5
1/2 times = 2 4/5 / 1/2
                = 5 3 /5
8 2/5 + 5 3/5 = 14 miles

Hope this helps :))
