To find out how far Sandy ran, you will rewrite this scenario in math terms.

She ran 2/5 of the way around the track, so 2/5 group of 1 3/4 miles.

2 x 1 3
5 4 is how you show this.

To multiply with mixed numbers you convert all mixed numbers into improper fractions.

1 3/4 = 7/4

2 x 7
5 4

14 7
20 = 10

Sandy ran 7/10 of a mile.
