Clarissa cycled at 12 1/2 miles per hour for 2 ½ hours. How far did she travel?

Answer 1

To find the distance traveled, we need to multiply the speed by the time.

The speed is 12 1/2 miles per hour, which can be written as a mixed number: 12 + 1/2 = 12.5 miles per hour.

The time is 2 1/2 hours, which can also be written as a mixed number: 2 + 1/2 = 2.5 hours.

Now we multiply the speed and time:

12.5 miles/hour * 2.5 hours = <<12.5*2.5=31.25>>31.25 miles.

Therefore, Clarissa traveled 31.25 miles.

Answer 2

31 1/4

Answer 3

Yes, Clarissa traveled a distance of 31 1/4 miles.
