Respuesta :

Answer:

Jason has to ride 0.75 i.e. [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]  miles to reach the end of the path.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jason begins at the start of a path and rides his bike [tex]11\frac{1}{2}[/tex] miles on the path . The path is [tex]12\frac{1}{4}[/tex] miles long.

Therefore, the path is 12.25 miles long and Jason rides the distance of 11.5 miles.

We are asked to determine the distance that Jason must ride to reach the end.

Hence, Jason has to ride (12.25 - 11.5) = 0.75 i.e. [tex]\frac{3}{4}[/tex]  miles to reach the end of the path. (Answer)
