multiply 7/9 by 5

How much does he walk in one day? He walks 7/9 in the morning then 7/9 in the afternoon right? So figure out what that means for 5 days in a week.

so u multiply 7/9 by 5 and then u will get the answer is that right?????
OpenStudy (anonymous):
well

Well, that is correct if you are only calculating how much he walks to school. But what about walking home? You're asking how much he walks in a week, so you're really asking what is 7/9 * 10
