Answer 1

Answer:

127/10 is the answer

Step-by-step explanation:

23/5+9/2+18/5

take LCM = 10

23*2/5*2, 9*5/2*5, 18*2/5*2

46/10 + 45/10 + 36/10

= 127/10 miles he ran

Answer 2

Answer-

john ran miles on Monday = 23/5 miles

john ran miles on Tuesday = 9/2 miles

john ran miles on Wednesday = 18/5 miles

total = 23/5 + 9/2 + 18/5

we will take lcm of denominators = 10

total = [ 23*2 + 9*5 + 18*2 ] / 10

total = [ 46 + 45 + 36 ] / 10

total = 127/10 miles

so, in total, john ran = 127/10 miles or 12.7 miles

hope it helps

have a nice day
