Question

The table shows the distance Kelly swam over a four-day period . What was the total distance, in miles, that Kelly swam?

Answer 1

10.05 miles

Explanation:

Apparently, Kelly's mileage on each of the 4 days was ...

{1.5, 2 3/4, 2.3, 3 1/2)

The numbers can be converted to decimal and summed in the usual way:

1.5 +2.75 +2.3 +3.5 = 10.05

The total distance Kelly swam is 10.05 miles. As a mixed number, that is 10 1/20 miles.
