Question

Sharon runs on a trail that is 17/2 miles long. She ran 1/3 of the trail and walked the rest of the way. How far did she run?

Answer 1

Answer:

17/6 miles or 2 5/6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The train is 17/2 miles

She ran 1/3 of the way

Multiply 1/3*17/2

1/3*17/2 = 17/6

We can change this to a mixed number

17/6 miles =2 5/6 miles
