Final answer:

Linda ran a total of 2 1/4 miles during the week by running 3/4 miles on three different days.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student has asked how far Linda ran during the week after running 3/4 miles on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday.

To find the total distance run by Linda over the three days, we simply add the distances she ran each day:

  • Monday: 3/4 miles
  • Wednesday: 3/4 miles
  • Friday: 3/4 miles

Total distance run by Linda is:

3/4 miles + 3/4 miles + 3/4 miles = 9/4 miles = 2 1/4 miles

Therefore, the answer to the question is (a) 2 1/4 miles.
