Answer 1

To find the total number of miles Vanessa will walk in three weeks, we need to calculate the sum of the distances she walks on each day of the week and then multiply that by 3 (the number of weeks).

On Mondays: 2 3/4 miles
On Wednesdays: 3 1/4 miles
On Fridays: 2 1/2 miles

Adding these distances together:
2 3/4 + 3 1/4 + 2 1/2 = 8 1/2 miles

Now, multiplying this distance by 3 (number of weeks):
8 1/2 miles * 3 = 25 1/2 miles

Therefore, the total number of miles Vanessa will walk in three weeks is 25 1/2 miles.

The correct answer is A. 25 1/2 miles.
