The distance between the school and the library is 3 1/2 miles. The distance between the library and Town Hall is 1 1/4 miles. How many miles farther is it from the school to the library than from the library to Town Hall
To find the difference in distance between the school and the library and the library and Town Hall, we subtract the distance between the library and Town Hall (1 1/4 miles) from the distance between the school and the library (3 1/2 miles): 3 1/2 miles - 1 1/4 miles = <<3 1/2-1 1/4=2 1/4>>2 1/4 miles. Answer: \boxed{2\frac{1}{4}}.
