Question

The jogging track at Francine’s school is 3/4 mile long. Yesterday Francine completed two laps on the track. If she ran 1/3 of the distance and walked the remainder of the way, how far did she walk?

(Give explanation as well please lol)

Answer 1

1/2 of a mile

Explanation:

Ok so she ran 1/3 of the distance and you know that the distance is 3/4 of a mile, so you multiply those two together and get 3/12 = 1/4. The total distance is 3/4 so 3/4 - 1/4 = 2/4 = 1/2
