A student ran a distance of miles each day for 5 days. then the student ran a distance of miles each day for the next 5 days. what was the total distance in miles the student ran during these 10 days?

Hence, The total distance in miles the student ran during these 10 days is 38.75 miles.

Distance is the total length between two points.

To calculate the total distance in miles covered by the student, during these 10 days ran, we use the formula below

Formula:

• D = d₁T+d₂T........... Equation 1

Where:

• D = Total distance
• d₁ = distance covered each day in the first 5 days
• d₂ = distance covered each day in the next 5 days

From the question,

Given:

• d₁ = 3miles = 7/2 miles
• T = 5 Days
• d₂ = 4 miles = 17/4 miles

Substitute these values into equation 1

• D = [(7/2)×5]+[(17/4)×5]
• D = 17.5+21.25
• D = 38.75 miles

Hence, The total distance in miles the student ran during these 10 days is 38.75 miles.
