Question

The track is 1 1/8 miles long. If Bailey jogged around it twice, how far did she jog?

Answer 1

2 * 1 1/8 =
2 * 9/8 =
18/8 which reduces to 9/4 or 2 1/4 miles

or u could have just did : 1 1/8 + 1 1/8 = 2 2/8 which reduces to 2 1/4 miles

Answer 2

$1 \frac{1}{8}*2=2 \frac{2}{8}$ reduces to $2 \frac{1}{4}$
