Answer:

To solve the problem, we can draw a number line and mark off the distances that Amiya jogged.

We start at 0 and mark off 1/3 of a mile to represent the distance Amiya jogged initially. Then we mark off another 1/3 of a mile to represent the distance she jogged after resting.

The total distance Amiya jogged is the distance from the starting point (0) to the end point (2/3), which is 2/3 of a mile.

Therefore, Amiya jogged a total of 2/3 of a mile.

Taking it further, to convert miles to meters, we need to know that 1 mile is equal to 1609.34 meters (approximately).

So to find out what 2/3 of a mile is in meters, we can multiply 2/3 by the conversion factor:

2/3 mile x 1609.34 meters/mile = 1072.89 meters

Therefore, 2/3 of a mile is approximately equal to 1072.89 meters.
