Question

Deja is training for a race on Saturday. On Sunday, she runs 1/6 of a mile. On Monday she runs 1/5 of a mile. On Tuesday she runs 1/4 of a mile. On Wednesday she runs 1/3 of a mile. On Thursday she runs 1/2 of a mile. Finally, on Friday, the day before the race, she runs a whole mile. If the length of the race is the same as the total distance Deja ran in preparation, how many miles is the race?

Answer 1

Answer:

49/20 miles or 2.45 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

LCM(1,2,3,4,5,6,)=60

10/60+12/60+15/60+20/60+30/60+60/60=147/60=49/60 or 2.45
