Sheri’s house is 0.05 miles from Abdul’s house. The post office is 0.1 mile from Abdul’s house. The school is 38mile from the post office.

If Sheri stops at Abdul’s house, and the post office on her way to school, how far will Sheri walk in all?

Final answer:

Sheri will walk a total of 0.95 miles, summing up the individual distances from her house to Abdul's, from there to the post office, and finally to the school.

Step-by-step explanation:

The student's question asked how far Sheri will walk in total if she stops at Abdul's house, the post office, and then goes to the school. To calculate the total distance Sheri walks, we add the individual distances together: the distance from Sheri's to Abdul's house (0.05 miles), from Abdul's house to the post office (0.1 mile), and assuming the distance from the post office to the school is meant to be 0.8 mile (possible typo correction of '38mile'), we include this as well. The total walking distance is calculated by summing these distances.

Total walking distance = Distance Sheri to Abdul + Distance Abdul to Post Office + Distance Post Office to School

Total walking distance = 0.05 miles + 0.1 miles + 0.8 miles

Total walking distance = 0.95 miles

Therefore, Sheri will walk a total of 0.95 miles.
