Question

Melanie planned to walk 4 4 over 7 miles on Tuesday. If she walked 2 2 over 5 miles in the morning, how far would she need to walk in the afternoon?

  1. 2 6 over 35 m i l e s
  2. 2 7 over 35 m i l e s
  3. 2 8 over 35 m i l e s
  4. 2 11 over 35 m i l e s

hintHint:

Subtract the total miles she planned to walk with the miles she walked in the morning to get the miles she
needs to walk in the afternoon.

The correct answer is: 2 6 over 35 m i l e s


    Step 1:
    Total distance walked = 4 4 over 7 miles
    Distance walked in the morning = 2 2 over 5
    Step 2:
    Distance walked in the afternoon = 4 4 over 7 minus 2 2 over 5
    32 over 7  - 12 over 5160 over 35 – 84 over 35
    76 over 35 equals 2 6 over 35  miles

    Carefully subtract the fractions without making any errors.
