Answer 1

To find out how many miles Sh bikes in one year, we start with the information given:

**Miles biked per month**: 135 miles
**Number of months in a year**: 12 months

To find the total miles biked in one year, we will multiply the monthly miles by the number of months in a year:

\[
\text{Total miles in a year} = \text{Miles per month} \times \text{Number of months}
\]

Substituting the values:

\[
\text{Total miles in a year} = 135 \text{ miles/month} \times 12 \text{ months}
\]

Now we perform the multiplication:

\[
135 \times 12
\]

To make the multiplication easier, we can break it down:

\[
135 \times 12 = 135 \times (10 + 2) = 135 \times 10 + 135 \times 2
\]

Calculating each part:

\[
135 \times 10 = 1350
\]
\[
135 \times 2 = 270
\]

Now we add these two results together:

\[
1350 + 270 = 1620
\]

Thus, the total miles Sh bikes in one year is:

\[
\text{Total miles} = 1620
\]

So, Sh bikes **1620 miles** in one year.
