Every weekday, Tasha walks 3/8 mile to go to school. After school, she walks 2/8 mile to go to her grandparents' house. Then she takes the smae route home. Does she walk more than one mile each day? Explain how you know.

There are two possibilities, and we don't know which situation is true.

#1).  School is in the middle, between home and grandparents. 

Home --------- 3/8 ----------- School --------- 2/8 ------- Grandparents .

If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks

(3/8 + 2/8 + 2/8 + 3/8) = 10/8  =  1.25 miles .

===========================================

#2):  Grandparents house is in the middle, between home and school.
Tasha passes by them on her way to school, and stops there to visit
on her way back home.

Home ------- 1/8 ------- Grandparents ---------- 2/8 ---------- School

If this is true, then in the whole day, Tasha walks

   (3/8 + 2/8 + 1/8) = 6/8  =  3/4 mile .
