Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem is put in different fractions to make it more confusing.

1 1/15 miles+ 1 3/5 miles+ 1 2/3 miles

We can find the common denominator of all of the fractions.

[tex]1 \frac{1}{15} + 1 \frac{9}{15} + 1 \frac{10}{15} \\= 3+\frac{20}{15} =4 \frac{5}{15}\\\\=[/tex]4  1/3

given:

[tex]monday = 1 \frac{1}{15} [/tex]

[tex]tuesday = 1 \frac{3}{5} [/tex]

[tex]wednesday = 1 \frac{2}{3} [/tex]

to find:

the total number of miles Kenya ran in 3 days.

solution:

[tex] \frac{16}{15} + \frac{8}{5} + \frac{5}{3} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{16}{15} + \frac{8 \times 3}{5 \times 3} + \frac{5 \times 5}{3 \times 5} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{16 + 24 + 25}{15} [/tex]

[tex] = \frac{65}{15} = \frac{13}{3} [/tex]

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

therefore, the correct answer is option D.
