To find out how far Tameka's sister ran, we can start by finding out how far Tameka ran. Given that Tameka ran 2 5/8 miles, we can represent this as a mixed number (2 and 5/8).
To add the whole number part and fraction part, we can add 2 and 5/8:
2 + 5/8 = ((2 * 8) + 5) / 8 = (16 + 5) / 8 = 21/8
Therefore, Tameka ran 21/8 miles.
Since Tameka's sister ran twice as far as Tameka, we can multiply Tameka's distance by 2:
(21/8) * 2 = 42/8
Therefore, Tameka's sister ran 42/8 miles, which can be simplified to 21/4 or 5 1/4 miles. So, Tameka's sister ran 5 1/4 miles.
