Answer:
1 9/40 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Just add 3/5 mi to 5/8 mi to obtain the total distance walked:
The LCD here is 5(8) = 40.
Thus, 3/5 mi converts to 24/40 mi, and 5/8 mi converts to 25/40 mi.
Adding these together, we get 49/40 miles, or
1 9/40 miles.
This is the actual total distance walked.
