Answer:
In the given figure, line segment is constructed on the triangle parallel to line segment . ... This line can then be considered as a transversal of these parallel lines. Angle and angle are therefore corresponding angles. And as they're corresponding, this means that they're equal.
2/3 is equivalent to 16/24
and 5/8 is equivalent to 15/24 miles
15/24+16/24= 31/24
31/24 simplifies to 1 6/24
Which simplifies down to 1 1/6
Miles ran 1 and 1/6 miles
