Answer:

3 miles

Explanation:

Kelsey first walked to the park which took 1.7 miles. Then she walked an additional 1.3 miles to get to the cafe.

If we are only counting the amount of miles that she walked without going back home then we can do this simply by doing

1.7+1.3

0.7+0.3 = 1.0 so we carry the one and in total we get 1.0+1.0+1.0 to get 3.0 miles or in other words 3 miles!
