Question

Pablo is training for a marathon. He ran 5 4/8 miles on Friday, 6 5/8 miles on Saturday, and 7 4/8 miles on Sunday. How many miles did he run on all three days?

Answer 1

Answer:

19 5/8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

First you convert all fractions into improper fraction which are

5 4/8 = 44/8

7 4/8 = 60/8

6 5/8 = 53/8

Then add just the numerators together as the denominator stays the same which looks like 157/8

Then see how many times 157 goes into 8 which is 19 with 5 left over

So you rewrite the answer as 19 5/8 miles
