Question

sophia runs 2 3/10 miles before school and 1 9/10 miles after school. Select all of the equations that you can use to find how far Sophia runs

Answer 1

Given data

$\begin{gathered} 2\frac{3}{10}\text{ = }\frac{23}{10}\text{ miles before school} \\ \\ 1\frac{9}{10}\text{ = }\frac{19}{10}\text{ miles after school} \end{gathered}$

Next, equations for the total distance

$\begin{gathered} \frac{19}{10}\text{ + }\frac{23}{10\text{ }}\text{ = }\frac{42}{10} \\ \\ Or \\ 1\frac{9}{10}\text{ + 2}\frac{3}{10}\text{ = 4}\frac{2}{10} \end{gathered}$

Final answer

$\text{First and the last option are the correct answers.}$
