To find the total distance that Asia walks, we need to add the distance she walks to the park and the distance she walks to her friend's house.
Asia walks 2 1/4 miles to the park.
Asia walks 1 6/8 miles to her friend's house.
We can add these two distances together:
2 1/4 miles + 1 6/8 miles
To add the mixed numbers, we first need to convert the fractions to have the same denominator.
1/4 = 2/8 (multiply numerator and denominator by 2)
6/8 = 6/8 (same denominator)
Now, we can add:
2 2/8 miles + 1 6/8 miles = (2 + 1) + (2/8 + 6/8) miles
The whole numbers add up: 2 + 1 = 3
The fractions add up: 2/8 + 6/8 = 8/8
So, the total distance Asia walks is:
3 + 8/8 miles = 3 + 1 mile
Therefore, Asia walks a total of 4 miles.
Asia walks 2 1/4 miles to the park.
Asia walks 1 6/8 miles to her friend's house.
We can add these two distances together:
2 1/4 miles + 1 6/8 miles
To add the mixed numbers, we first need to convert the fractions to have the same denominator.
1/4 = 2/8 (multiply numerator and denominator by 2)
6/8 = 6/8 (same denominator)
Now, we can add:
2 2/8 miles + 1 6/8 miles = (2 + 1) + (2/8 + 6/8) miles
The whole numbers add up: 2 + 1 = 3
The fractions add up: 2/8 + 6/8 = 8/8
So, the total distance Asia walks is:
3 + 8/8 miles = 3 + 1 mile
Therefore, Asia walks a total of 4 miles.
