Answer:

Answer:

[tex]9 \frac{2}{5} - 3\frac{3}{10}\\ \frac{(9 \times 5 + 2)}{5} - \frac{(3 \times 10 + 3)}{10} \\ \frac{47}{5} - \frac{33}{10} \\ \frac{47 \times 2}{10} - \frac{33 \times 1}{10} \\ \frac{94}{10} - \frac{33}{10} \\ \frac{(94 - 33)}{10} \\ \frac{61}{10} \\ 61 \div 10 = 6 \: (whole \: number) \\ 61 - (10 \times 6) = 1 \: (numerator) \\ 10 \: (copy \: the \: denominator) \\ translate \: into \: fraction \\ 6 \frac{1}{10} [/tex]

Final Answer:

6 1/10 miles
