Answer:

16 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] miles

Step-by-step explanation:

2 [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] + 2 [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex] = 4 [tex]\frac{5}{4}[/tex] which equals 4 + 1 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] or 5 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

5 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] + 3 = 8 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

she ran 8 and one-quarter miles in the first week and if she ran the same amount the second week then we can add to get the answer:

8 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] +  8 [tex]\frac{1}{4}[/tex] = 16 [tex]\frac{2}{4}[/tex] or 16 [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]
