Question

Margie hiked 17 7/8 mile trail. She stopped every 3 2/5 miles to take a picture. What is the best estimate of the number of times she stopped?

Choices:4,6,5,8.

Answer 1

I would say 5, i’m not completely sure as i’m only a student as well. just a best estimate, unless you want to estimate by going 18 / 3, if you do 17 7/8 / 3 2/5 it’s about 5.3, meaning about 5. whatever you are going about would work i believe

Answer 2

the correct answer is 5!!!
hope this helps!
