Question

Carter jogged 1/3 mile to meet his friend, and then jogged another 1 1/6 miles afterward. What is the total distance Carter jogged?

Answer 1

1 1/2

Explanation:

1/3 + 1 1/6

Make sure they have the same denominator so it is easier to add and find an answer.

1/3 ---> 2/6

2/6 + 1 1/6 = 1 3/6

Always simplify!

1 1/2
