Math Problem Statement

Chris walked 4 miles a day for 21 days. How many miles did she walk in all?

Solution

To find the total number of miles Chris walked, multiply the number of miles she walked per day by the number of days she walked.

Total miles=4miles/day×21days\text{Total miles} = 4 \, \text{miles/day} \times 21 \, \text{days}

Total miles=84miles\text{Total miles} = 84 \, \text{miles}

Chris walked 84 miles in all.
