Question

27. Jaimie ran 3 miles on Monday. She ran half

as far on Tuesday as she did on Monday. How
far did Jaimie run in all on Monday and
Tuesday?

Answer 1

4.5 miles

Explanation:

We don't really need an equation for this, as we know what one half of three is - it is 1.5. So we just add 3 and 1.5 to get the sum.
