Question

Belle walks 7/10 mile each morning, and 1, 4/10 miles each evening.

how many miles does she walk in 5 days

Answer 1

10 1/2

Explanation:

divide 7/10 which is 0.7 then multiply that by 5 which is 3.5

then divide 4/10 which is 0.4 then multiply that by 5 which is 2, but add 5 which is 7.

then combine all of that together which is 3.5+7= 10.5

then convert that into a fraction which is 10 1/2

Answer 2

10.5 miles.

Explanation:

If she walks 7/10 of a mile each morning, and 1, 4/10 of a mile each day, Belle walks a total of 2 1/10 of a mile each day (2.1) miles each day)

We can just multiply the amount of miles per day by 5, (2.1 x 5) and we get 10.5 miles total.
