Question

Michael is training for a 10 mile race. During the first week, he runs 2 miles. Each week he runs one and a half times what he ran the previous week. If he only runs once a week, how many total miles has he run by the 5th week?

Answer 1

10.125 miles because you multiply two by 1.5 which is three and then multiply three by 1.5 which is 4.5 and so on.
