Question

Several students were asked how many blocks they walk from home to school each day results are shown in the line plot below Miguel walks the shortest distance jila Watch the longest distance how much farther Then Miguel does jila walk?

Answer 1

Miguel walks 4.25 blocks more than Jila.

Explanation:

Line plot shown in the question represents the distance traveled by the students from their houses to their school.

From the line plot,

Distance between 1 and 2 =
`(1)/(4)` = 0.25 blocks

Shortest distance traveled by Miguel = 0.25 blocks

Longest distance traveled by Jila = 4.5 blocks

Difference between the distances covered by Miguel and Jila = 4.5 - 0.25

= 4.25 blocks

Therefore, Miguel walks 4.25 blocks more than Jila.
