Question

aisha hiked each day for a week. the first day she hiked 1/6 mile, the second day she hiked 1/2 mile, and the third day she hiked 5/6 mile. by how much did she increase the distance she hiked each day?

Answer 1

She increased the distance each time by 2/6 of a mile, because 1/2 is equal to 3/6 and 1/6+2/6=3/6, (1/2) and 3/6, (1/2) plus 2/6 equals 5/6.
