Mikah and Gracie were running laps at the local gym. Mikah ran 1 and 4/8 laps, and Gracie ran 1 and 1/2 laps. Who ran a further distance?

Respuesta :

Hysigh

Answer:

Trick question they both ran equal distance

Step-by-step explanation:

Gracies distand 1 and 1/2 is already in simplist form, but Mikahs distance 1 and 4/8 can be reduced.

More specifically the fration 4/8 can be reduced, finding the largest common multiple between 4 and 8 we find that 4 is the largest number that goes into both.

This results in the simplification of 1 and 4/8 to 1 and 1/2 which is the same as Gracies distance.
