Answer:
Rosa ran [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of the total distance between her house and her school.
Step-by-step explanation:
Distance between Rosa's house and her school = [tex]4\frac{1}{2}[/tex] miles ≈ 4.5 miles
She ran distance = 3 miles
Therefore, fraction of the total distance between her house and school she run = [tex]\frac{\text{Distance run by Rosa}}{\text{Total distance between her house and school}}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{3}{4.5}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{30}{45}[/tex]
= [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex]
Therefore, Rosa ran [tex]\frac{2}{3}[/tex] of the total distance between her house and her school.
