It might help to convert 7 & 1/3 into an improper fraction. Do you know how to do that?

a little :(
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
multiply the denominator 3 with the whole part 7 to get 21
then add on the numerator: 21+1 = 22
so \[\Large 7 \frac{1}{3} = \frac{22}{3}\]
make sense?

ya
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
now divide 22/3 over 1/6
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
that is the same as saying 22/3 times 6/1

well like I said above: Divide the total distance by the number of miles jogged per day.
jimthompson5910 (jim_thompson5910):
\[\Large \text{Answer} = \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{Miles jogged per day}}\]
