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 .
