James swims 3/4 miles 5 times a week. How far does he swim in one week.

3 and 3/4 miles I believe!

I agree with Skye that 3 and 3/4 miles is the answer.

Since he swims 5 times, you can either add or multiply.

For adding, this is what it would be:

3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 + 3/4 = 3 3/4.

Since 3/4 is also 0.75, you can put 0.75 into the place of each of the 3/4s

This would be it.

0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75 + 0.75 = 3.75 = 3 3/4

For multiplying, this would be it:

5 x 3/4 = 3.75 = 3 3/4.

So yes, 3 3/4 or 3.75 is the answer to this word problem.

To find out how far James swims in one week, we need to multiply the distance he swims in a day by the number of days he swims in a week.

First, let's calculate the distance James swims in one day. James swims 3/4 (or 0.75) miles.

To find the distance he swims in one week, we multiply the distance he swims in one day by the number of days he swims in a week.

So, the calculation is: 0.75 miles/day × 5 days/week = 3.75 miles/week.

Therefore, James swims a total distance of 3.75 miles in one week.
