Elena was running a course 7/8 of a mile long. She stopped 2/3 of the way through ti drink some water. How far had she run at that point?

1 answer

To find out how far she had run at the point she stopped, we need to calculate 7/8 * 2/3
7/8 * 2/3 = (7*2)/(8*3) = 14/24 = 7/12
Elena had run 7/12 of a mile when she stopped.
