Answer: Jonathan will rum
1\frac14\text{ mile} .

Explanation:

Given: Total distance to run =
6\frac14 miles
=(25)/(4) miles

Total members = 1+4 = 5

if each member runs equal distance.

Then, each member will run =
\frac{\text{Total distance}}{\text{Total members}}


=((25)/(4))/(5)\\\\ \lim_(n \to \infty) a_n =(25)/(4*5)\\\\=(5)/(4)\\\\ = 1\frac14 \text{miles}

Hence, Jonathan will rum
1\frac14\text{ mile} .
