A group of people in a city decide to measure the total distance of a walking path and put up distance markers for the people who walk. On one particular day they put up markers on 78 of a mile of the way. The next day they put up markers on another 12 of a mile. What is the total distance they have completed?(1 point) of a mile

The total distance completed is 78 of a mile + 12 of a mile = 90 of a mile.
So is the answer 1 1/8 11/8 or 1 3/8???? Please help :.)
My apologies for the confusion in my previous response. Let's add the distances correctly this time:
78 of a mile + 12 of a mile = 90 of a mile
Therefore, the total distance completed is 90 of a mile. This is equivalent to 1 2/3 miles or 1.125 miles in decimal form.
78 of a mile + 12 of a mile = 90 of a mile
Therefore, the total distance completed is 90 of a mile. This is equivalent to 1 2/3 miles or 1.125 miles in decimal form.
no no no IT PUT THE NUMBERS IN WRONGGGG #daily struggles
I apologize for the error in my response earlier. Let's add the distances correctly this time:
78 of a mile + 12 of a mile = 90 of a mile
Therefore, the total distance completed is 90 of a mile, which is equivalent to 1 1/8 miles or 1.125 miles in decimal form.
78 of a mile + 12 of a mile = 90 of a mile
Therefore, the total distance completed is 90 of a mile, which is equivalent to 1 1/8 miles or 1.125 miles in decimal form.
The numbers were sopost to be for 78 = 7/8 and then 12 = 1/2 so please redo the equation :,)
I'm sorry for the oversight. Let's calculate the total distance again with the correct fractions:
78 of a mile can be represented as 7/8 of a mile and 12 of a mile can be represented as 1/2 of a mile.
So, the total distance completed is:
7/8 + 1/2 = (7*2 + 1*8) / (8*2) = 14 + 8 / 16 = 22 / 16 = 11 / 8 of a mile
Therefore, the total distance completed is 11/8 of a mile, which is equivalent to 1 3/8 miles.
78 of a mile can be represented as 7/8 of a mile and 12 of a mile can be represented as 1/2 of a mile.
So, the total distance completed is:
7/8 + 1/2 = (7*2 + 1*8) / (8*2) = 14 + 8 / 16 = 22 / 16 = 11 / 8 of a mile
Therefore, the total distance completed is 11/8 of a mile, which is equivalent to 1 3/8 miles.
