Sid and jill hiked 4 1/8 miles in the morning and 1 7/8 miles in the afternoon. how many times as far did they hike in the morning as in the afternoon? am i suppose to get a whole number?

They hiked 5 times further in the morning than the afternoon.

38+105= 143, 39+104=143, and you will find then adding the numbers on opposite sides, moving inwards yields the answer 138 every time. because of this, you’re going to multiply 138 times the number of pairs, which is 34. therefore, 34*138= 4692(i’m sorry if it’s the wrong numbers, but it’s the right concept)
