Mr. Smith runs 2.7 miles every day of the week. How many miles does he run in one year?

Question

A) 936 miles
B) 842.4 miles
C) 945 miles
D) 985.5 miles

Answer 1

To calculate the total number of miles Mr. Smith runs in one year, we first calculate the number of miles he runs in one week:

2.7 miles/day * 7 days/week = 18.9 miles/week

Then, we calculate the number of miles he runs in one year:

18.9 miles/week * 52 weeks/year = 982.8 miles

Therefore, Mr. Smith runs approximately 982.8 miles in one year.

The closest answer is D) 985.5 miles.
