The question demands that we find a fraction of a given quantity.

The 'of ' means multiplication.

So the total distance of the journey was

[tex]13 \: miles[/tex]

But they walked ¼ of the whole journey. We are supposed to find

[tex] \frac{1}{4} \: of \: 13 \: miles[/tex]
[tex]

= \frac{1}{4} \times 13 \: miles[/tex]

[tex]
= \frac{13}{4} \: miles[/tex]

[tex]
= 3.25\: miles[/tex]

Hence they walked 3.25 miles.
