Quintin’s running club is running a 2 1/2 mile race. There are 8 members, and each one only wants to run 1/4 mile. Is this possible? Why or why not?(1 point)

Yes, that distance is exactly right to split the distance between 8 people.

No, they would need more people to make that distance work. The total distance each member wants to run is 8 * 1/4 = 2 miles. However, the race is only 2 1/2 miles, so there would be a 1/2 mile remaining that cannot be split among the members.
