Answer 1

6 yards

Explanation:

To Find:

How many yards did Carlos run in all?

Solution:

In all means addition in this question

Thus,

3 1/2 and 2 1/2

3 1/2 + 2 1/2

we can turn them into improper fraction and then find the answer
3 1/2 = 7/2 and 2 1/2 = 5/2

7/2 + 5/2 = 12/2

12/2 = 6

Hence, Carlos run 6 yards in all

Answer 2

6 yard

Explanation:

Since, it given that:

Carlos ran 3 1/2 miles on Saturday and 2 1/2 miles on Sunday.

And asking for how many yards carlos run in all

in all = add

3 1/2 + 2 1/2

Add the whole number

3 + 2 = 5

Since they have the same denominator we can just add them

1/2 + 1/2 = 1 whole

Since it a whole we can add to the whole number

5 + 1 = 6

Thus, Carlos run 6 yards.
