The miles the student biked in two weeks is 11 2/3 miles.

The distance the student bikes is given in fractions. Fractions are numbers that are made up of numerator and denominators. An examples of a fraction is 1/4. 1 is the numerator and 4 is the denominator.

In order to determine the distance biked in 2 weeks, the distance biked in a day has to be determined.

Distance biked in a day = (1/4 + 1/3 + 7/12)

14/12 = 1 2/12 = 1 1/6

Distance he would travel in 2 weeks

1 1/6 x 10

7/6 x 10 = 70 /6 = 11 2/3 miles
