Answer: Jorge would have to run 3
(3)/(8) miles to reach his 23 mile goal.

Explanation:

When you add 5
(3)/(4)+ 7 (3)/(8)=
13(1)/(8)


13(1)/(8)+6 (1)/(2)=19(5)/(8)

Now you can subtract
19 (5)/(8) from 23, which would give you
3(3)/(8), being the total amount of miles left to run. You can add the terms without a calculator as well, by making the fractions have a common denominator.

Hope this helps!
