Eli lives 3 3/4 miles from the library. He divide to bike from his home to the library to return some books. Eli biked 1 1/10 mi
les when he remembered that he had left a book at home so he biked back home to get it. After getting the book from home home he biked to the library. What was the total distance in miles Eli had bike biked when he finally reach the library?
Eli he rode his bike 1 1/10 miles, until he forgot his book so he went back which is another 1 1/10 miles. 1 1/10 x 2 = 2 1/5. Then, he left his house again and rode his bike 3 3/4 miles. The question is basically asking for the amount of miles it took him to get to the library so you would have to add 3 3/4 and 2 1/5 which equals 5 19/20. Hope this helps!!
5.95 is your answer because Eli biked 1 1/10 and then he returned to his home that would be 1 + 1/10 + 1 1/10 = 2.2 but then Eli returned to the library which is 3 3/4 from her home so add 2.2 + 3 3/4 = 5.95
