Given:

Matthew walks 5/8 mile to the bus stop each morning.

To find:

How far will he walk in 5 days.

Solution:

According to the given information,

Distance covered by Matthew in 1 day (morning)
=(5)/(8) mile

Using this, we get

Distance covered by Matthew in 5 days (morning)
=5* (5)/(8) mile


=(25)/(8) mile

Therefore, we will walk
(25)/(8) miles in 5 days.
