Question

Solve:

Jack ran 3 1/3 miles on Monday. He ran four times as far on Friday
How far did Jack run on Friday?

Answer 1

convert 3 1/3 to an improper fraction

3*3 = 9

9+1 = 10

10/3

multiply the numerator by 4

(10/3) * 4 = 40/3

40/3 = 13 1/3

Answer 2

Explanation:

• Monday = 3⅓ miles

• Friday = 4 × Monday

`{ \rm{friday \: \dashrightarrow \: 4 * 3 (1)/(3) }} \\ \\ \dashrightarrow \: { \rm{4 * (10)/(3) }} \\ \\ \dashrightarrow \: { \rm{ (40)/(3) }} \\ \\{ \rm{jack \: ran \: }} { \underline{ \underline{ \rm{ \: 13 (1)/(3) \: }}}}{ \rm{ \: miles \: on \: friday}}`
