Answer:

MAY BE

OLA WILL RUN 2 MILES THIS IS CORRECT OR RIGHT I THINK

A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. The total distance of the route Ola will run is 3(5/8) miles.

What is a Fraction?

A fraction is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25.

What is Mixed Fraction or mixed number?

A mixed fraction is a fraction that contains a whole number and a fraction whose denominator is greater than the numerator.

Given the distance from the house to the park is 1(1/4) miles, while the distance from the park to the house is 2(3/8) miles, therefore, the total distance which the ola will travel can be written as,

[tex]\rm Distance = 1\dfrac14 + 2\dfrac38\\\\Distance = \dfrac{(4 \times1)+1}4 + \dfrac{(8 \times 2)+3}{8}\\\\Distance = \dfrac54 + \dfrac{19}{8}\\\\Distance = \dfrac{5\times 2}{4 \times 2} + \dfrac{19}{8}\\\\Distance = \dfrac{10}{8} + \dfrac{19}{8}[/tex]

[tex]\rm Distance = \dfrac{10+19}{8}\\\\Distance = \dfrac{29}{8} = 3\dfrac{5}{8}\ miles[/tex]

Hence, the total distance of the route Ola will run is 3(5/8) miles.
