Answer:

3 1/4

Explanation:

Hey there!

Well if Cedarburg to Westford is 8 3/4 miles and Oxford to Westford is 5 1/2 miles, we can make the following,

CO = CW - OW

CO = 8 3/4 - 5 1/2

Make the denominators the same,

5 1/2

improper

11/2

*2

22/4

Proper

5 2/4

8 3/4 - 5 2/4

3 1/4 miles

Hope this helps :)
