kirby wants to run a rotal 7 5/8 miles every Tuesday and Thursday. If he runs 4 4/8 mile on Tuesday and 3 3/8 on Thursday, will he meet his goal for the week? And if so How?

Answer 1

To see if he met his goal, we should add them up and see which number is greater.

4 4/8 + 3 3/8

4+3=7

4/8+3/8 = 7/8

Total is 7 7/8 which is more than 7 5/8. Therefore he met his goal!
