Question

Last Saturday, Liam walked his dog 1 2/5 miles. JJ walked his dog 5 times as far. How many miles total did they BOTH walked their dogs together? * 0/3

Answer 1

Answer:

8 2/5 miles or 8.4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Liam walked his Dog=1 2/5=1.4 miles

Since JJ walked his dog 5 times farther than Liam, this can be expressed as

(1.4×5)=7 miles

Total miles both walked their dogs=(Liam's distance+JJ's distance)

=(1.4+7)=8.4 miles, or 8 2/5 miles
