Answer 1

1.       Lucas Lives 5/8 miles from their schools
=> 5/8 miles is equals to:
=> 5 / 8 = 0.625 miles.
Now, the problem says that Kenny lives twice as far as Lucas from their school.
Therefore, we only need to multiply the total number of miles of Lucas distance from house to school to be able to get what is the distance of Kenny’s house to school
=> 0.625 * 2 = 1.25 miles or 1 and ¼ miles.
