Answer 1

Bethanie and Laney walked a total of = 0.66 miles or (
`(33)/(50)`th of a mile)

Explanation:

Bethanie walked 3/10th of a mile

Laney walked 36/100th of a mile

Lets divide and convert them to decimal:

3 divided by 10 gives us 0.30

36 divided by 100 gives 0.36

Total they walked:

0.30 + 0.36 = 0.66 miles

That would be (in fraction):

66/100 = 33/50 of a mile
