Respuesta :

According to the information given, it is found that in total, the group hiked 10.96 miles.

How is the total distance calculated?

  • The total distance is the sum of the distances of each step.

The distances of each step, in miles, are:

  • First step: [tex]4\frac{7}{8} = 4 + \frac{7}{8} = 4.875[/tex].
  • Second step: [tex]1\frac{2}{3} = 1 + \frac{2}{3} = 1.67[/tex].
  • Third step: [tex]3\frac{5}{6} = 3 + \frac{5}{6} = 3.833[/tex].
  • Fourth step: [tex]2\frac{7}{12} = 2 + \frac{7}{12} = 0.583[/tex].

Hence, the total distance is:

[tex]d = 4.875 + 1.67 + 3.833 + 0.583 = 10.96[/tex]

The group hiked 10.96 miles.
