You're on the right track! Now that you have drawn a right triangle with the hypotenuse as the segment from Joe's home to the Park, we can use Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the hypotenuse.
Pythagorean Theorem = a squared + b squared = c squared
A and B are the legs, and C is the hypotenuse. We can find the legs be calculating how many units they are.
2 - (-1) = 3
3 - 1 = 2
Pythagorean Theorem = 3 squared + 2 squared = c squared
= 9 + 4 = c squared
= 13 = c squared
=
= c
The square root of 13 is around 3.6, so Joe's house is approximately 3.6 miles away from the park.

The decimal representation of any number is a linear combination of powers of 10. In other words, given a number like 123.456, we can expand it as
for any
, so the above is the same as
Similarly, we can write
Now it's a question of reducing the fraction as much as possible. We have so
