The group hiked a total of 17.4 miles on the first day. On the second day, the group hiked a distance 12% more than the total distance hiked on the first day. To the nearest tenth of a mile, how many miles did the group hike on the second day?

On this, you would want to multiply the first by 1.12. So then 17.4 x 1.12= 19.488. when rounded, it equals 19.5 miles.
