Question

- Emily hiked along a trail that is

8 miles long. She hiked 2.25 miles
before lunch, and then another
3.375 miles after lunch, before
stopping for a rest. How many more
miles did Emily need to hike to
finish the trail?

Answer 1

2.375

Explanation:

She travelled 2.25 + 3.375 altogether which equals 5.625

To find out what she has left you minus 5.625 miles from 8 miles

8 - 5.625 = 2.375
