Answer:

Jenna has run the distance of [tex]\frac{100}{21}[/tex] miles .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Distance for the trail = 8 [tex]\frac{4}{7}[/tex] =  [tex]\frac{56+4}{7}[/tex]

Or , Distance =  [tex]\frac{60}{7}[/tex] miles

The distance cover by Jenna =  [tex]\frac{5}{9}[/tex] miles of the distance

I.e The distance cover by Jenna =  [tex]\frac{5}{9}[/tex] ×  [tex]\frac{60}{7}[/tex]

Or, The distance cover by Jenna =  [tex]\frac{100}{21}[/tex] miles

Hence Jenna has run the distance of [tex]\frac{100}{21}[/tex] miles . Answer
