On Tuesday, Alec ran 3/4 miles.
On Saturday, he ran 2.2 times further, so he ran 2.2 * (3/4) = <<2.2*(3/4)=1.65>>1.65 miles. Answer: \boxed{1.65}.
simplify and show the work
To find how many miles Alec ran on Saturday, we will multiply the distance he ran on Tuesday (3/4 miles) by 2.2.

(3/4) * 2.2 = (3 * 2.2) / 4

Multiplying the numerators: 3 * 2.2 = 6.6
Multiplying the denominators: 4

So, Alec ran 6.6/4 = 1.65 miles on Saturday.
in fraction form pls
To simplify 6.6/4 in fraction form, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.

6.6 ÷ 2 / 4 ÷ 2 = 3.3/2

Therefore, Alec ran 3.3/2 miles on Saturday.
