The path Maribel rides to the post office on her bicycle is 1 3/4 miles long.

Maribel rode 3/5 mile from her home to the park.
Then, she went 2/5 mile from the park to the school.

How many more miles does Maribel still need to ride to reach the post office?

Answer:

  • Maribel needs to travel 0.75 miles to reach the Post Office.

Explanation:

We know that:

  • 1 3/4 = Miles to Post Office

Work:

  • Home => Park (3/5 miles)
  • Park => School (3/5 + 2/5 miles)
  • => School => Post Office (7/4 - 5/5 miles)
  • => School => Post Office (7/4 - 4/4 miles)
  • => School => Post Office (3/4 miles)

Hence, Maribel needs to travel 0.75 miles to reach the Post Office.

Hoped this helped.
