Answer:

.125 of a mile

Explanation:

If the total distance was 3/8 of a mile and there were 3 runners, then each runner ran ___________________.

Change the 3/8 to a decimal

3/8 = 0.375 of a mile

Since there were 3 runners divide the total distance by 3

0.375/3 = 0.125

Each runner ran 1/8 of a mile or 0.125 of a mile.
