Question

HELP! I'll give medal if you help me.

Jane walked 4/5 mile on Monday. On Tuesday, she walked 1/2 of the distance she walked on Monday. How many miles did Jane walk on Tuesday?

Answer 1

So essentially, we want to know what 1/2 of the distance of 4/5 of a mile is.

This calls for a multiplication problem!

\[\frac{ 1 }{ 2 } \times \frac{ 4 }{ 5 }\]

Which is \[\frac{ 4 }{ 10 }\]
Simplified, it is

\[\frac{ 2 }{ 5 }\]
of a mile.

Hope this helps.
