Respuesta :

880/1760=0.5 miles = half a mile
why?
1760 yards is a mile. 880 yards is half of 1760 yards (because 880/1760=0.5). So, 880 yards is half of a mile.

Answer:

7  1/2 miles by bus, 1/2 mile on foot

Step-by-step explanation:

Gloria traveled 8 miles total, of which 880 yards were on foot.

To determine how far she traveled by bus, subtract 880 yards from 8 miles.

1) Convert 880 yards to miles:

880 yards        1 mile

---------------- * -------------- = 1/2 mile

       1              1760 yd

Then Gloria traveled (8 miles less 1/2 mile), or 7  1/2 miles by bus and 1/2 mile on foot.
