Namely, how much is 2 and 1/2 of 2 and 3/8 then, well is just their product, let's first convert them both from mixed to "improper" and proceed.

\bf \stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{3}{8}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 8+3}{8}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{19}{8}}
\\\\\\
\stackrel{mixed}{2\frac{1}{2}}\implies \cfrac{2\cdot 2+1}{2}\implies \stackrel{improper}{\cfrac{5}{2}}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\stackrel{laps~done}{\cfrac{5}{2}}\cdot \stackrel{\textit{miles in a lap}}{\cfrac{19}{8}}\implies \cfrac{95}{16}\implies \stackrel{miles}{5\frac{15}{16}}

Which of the following statements about trapezoids is true? 
maw [93]

    D one pair of opposite sides is parallel is the answer because trapezoids are another pair angled towards each and if  you follow long enough they will intersect. A couldn't be true because if ALL the angles are corresponding angles you would need two pairs of parallel lines. B isn't correct because the sides would need to be parallel for that too. C well you've already proved they don't have two pairs of parallel lines.

Hope this helps :)
