Chanel Walton · Answer 1

Bill does.

Step-by-step explanation:

10 is a whole number while 2 3/5 is a mixed number and 10 is greater than 2 3/5 so Bill covered the farther distance

Alivia Lindsey · Answer 2

The problem gives a distance with a fraction (not a decimal); there is absolutely no reason to convert it to a decimal.

In 4 days, Val walks

4 * (2 3/5) miles

4 * (13/5) miles 52/5 miles

10 2/5 miles

Compare that to Bill, who runs 10 miles every 4 days.
