Question

Clare was training for a running race she decided to run 3/8 mile from school to the park later she left the park and ran 1/2 mile hone she told her brother the distances she ran her brother said you ran a total of 2/5 do you agree with Claire's brother

Answer 1

I disagree

Explanation:

Given that :

Distance from school to park = 3/8 miles

Distance from Park to home = 1/ 2 miles

Brother claims Total mile ran = 2/5 miles

The total miles ran is the sum of distance covered fromschoo to park and park to home

3/8 miles + 1/2 miles

L. C. M of 8 and 2 = 8

(3 + 4) / 8 miles

7/ 8 miles

Hence, I disagree with Claire's brother
