Question

I do not understand this question?
 To train for the​ cross-country team, Shira runs 5 1/4 miles each day. How far does
she run each​ week? Explain how you can use the Distributive Property to find the answer.

Answer 1

Here, Shira runs = 5 1/4 = 21/4 miles
It would be: 21/4 (1 + 6)

[ 6 because, 6 days are remaining in the week after 1 ]
So, 21/4 (7) = 36.75

In short, Your Answer would be 36.75 miles

Hope this helps!
