To find out how far Eliana had run at the point she stopped to drink water, we need to calculate 2/3 of the course length, which is 7/8 of a mile.
(2/3) * (7/8) = (2*7) / (3*8) = 14 / 24
To simplify the fraction, we can divide both the numerator and denominator by their greatest common divisor, which is 2.
14 / 24 = 7 / 12
Therefore, Eliana had run 7/12 of a mile when she stopped to drink water.
Eliana was running a course 7th 8th of a mile long she stopped 2/3 of the way through
two drinks some water how far had she run that point right in the simplest form
