Renee hiked for 8 and 3/4 miles. After resting, Renee hiked back along the same route for 7 and 1/4 miles. How many more miles does Renee need to hike to return to the place where she started? Represent your answer as a simplified mixed number, if necessary.

I need an answer ASAP thanks.

the answer is 3/2. you do this by subtracting 7 1/4 from the 8 3/4 and simplifying the 6/4!
