Rachel jogged along a trail that was '1/4' of a mile long. She jogged along the trail '8 times'
Notice the key word, 'times', this means you are going to use multiplication.
Convert 8 into a fraction, like this:
\(\frac{8}{1}\)
Now, lets set up your problem, and solve:
\(\frac{1}{4} * \frac{8}{1}\)
\(\frac{(1*8)}{(4*1)}\)
\(\frac{8}{4}\)
Answer:
\(2~miles\)
Rachel had jogged 2 miles.
Good luck with your studies, I hope this helps~!
