I agree with Skye that 3 and 3/4 miles is the answer.
Since he swims 5 times, you can either add or multiply.
For adding, this is what it would be:
3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 = 3 3/4.
Since 3/4 is also 0.75, you can put 0.75 into the place of each of the 3/4s
This would be it.
0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75 = 3.75 = 3 3/4
For multiplying, this would be it:
5 x 3/4 = 3.75 = 3 3/4.
So yes, 3 3/4 or 3.75 is the answer to this word problem.
