Michelle walks 3 1 half miles a day. How far does she walk in one week if she walks every day?

1 answer

To find how far Michelle walks in one week, we need to multiply the distance she walks in one day by the number of days in a week.

First, let's express 3 1/2 as an improper fraction. We find that 1/2 is equal to 2/4. So, 3 1/2 is equivalent to (3 * 2) + 1/2 = 6/2 + 1/2 = 7/2.

Now, let's multiply 7/2 by 7 (the number of days in a week). (7/2) * 7 = 49/2.

To simplify the fraction 49/2 to its lowest terms, we can divide the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor (GCD), which is 1. 49/2 รท 1 = 49/2.

Therefore, Michelle walks 49/2 miles in one week.
