Answer 1

Answer:

She traveled a total of 2875 metres during practice.

Step-by-step explanation:

Doris ran 2.5 kilometres, then sprinted 300 meters and finally walked 1/4 of the distance she sprinted.

To find the total distance that she traveled, we simply add the distance that she ran, sprinted and walked.

We will convert all distances to metres.

She ran 2.5 kilometres:

1 km = 1000 m

2.5 km = 2.5 * 1000 = 2500 m

So, she ran 2500 m.

She sprinted 300 m.

Se walked 1/4 the distance that she sprinted:

1/4 * 300 = 75 m

She walked 75 m.

Therefore, the total distance she traveled is:

2500 + 300 + 75 = 2875 m

She traveled a total of 2875 metres during practice.
