Hi there!

From this problem we can pull out some key information and remove any excess.

- The trail is 1/4 of a mile long.
- Angelo rode around the trail 8 times.
- Angelo claims he rode 8/4 miles.
- Teresa claims he rode 2 miles.

From that we know that if Angelo rode around the trail 8 times and the trail is 1/4 a mile, he in total rode 8/4 of a mile.

However, Teresa claims he rode 2 miles!

And the answer is... they're both correct!

Angelo did indeed ride 8/4 miles however that is equivalent to 2 miles so they are both in the right.
