Answer 1

To find the distance of the swimming event, you can subtract the distance of the running event from the total distance of the race.

Total distance of the race = 7.13 miles
Distance of the running event = 6.2 miles

Distance of the swimming event = Total distance - Distance of running event
Distance of the swimming event = 7.13 miles - 6.2 miles
Distance of the swimming event = 0.93 miles

Therefore, the distance of the swimming event is 0.93 miles.
