Question

Han ran ¼ the length of his road, which is 7 miles long. How far did he go?

a) 1.75 miles
b) 1 mile
c) 2.5 miles
d) 1.5 miles

Answer 1

To find out how far Han went, the total length of the road (7 miles) is multiplied by ¼, resulting in a distance of 1.75 miles, which is option a).

Step-by-step explanation:

The question asks to calculate how far Han ran if he ran ¼ the length of his 7-mile long road. To find the distance Han ran, you multiply the total length of the road by ¼:

Distance Han ran = ¼ × 7 miles
= 0.25 × 7 miles
= 1.75 miles

Therefore, the distance Han ran is 1.75 miles, which makes option a) the correct answer.
