Dana ran 1/4 mile. trish ran 445 yards. who ran the greater distance? explain. this is due !

Steps:
1.) first you need to change miles to yards. So 1/4 mile is 440 yards.

So Trish ran the greater distance. If they want to know by how much if would be by 5 or you can subtract 445 - 440 which equals 5.

Hope this helped

Something for you to know: * If you ever need to change a fraction to a decimal and you have to use the number 4 like 1/4 think of 4's like quarters so 1 quarter is 25 cents. So the decimal for 1/4 is .25. And if you have to change a decimal to a percent like 1/4 is .25, you just put a prevent sign in back of the decimal. So .25 is 25% and 2/4 is .50 so the percent is 50%.

That's was just something for you to know. Tell me if you need me to explain it better. And I hope I didn't make you confused about the question you original asked me

You can find the area of a rectangle by multiplying the length and height. so multiply 1/2*7/4(which is the simpler version of 1 3/4) and you get 7/8 as your answer.
