Connor ran 3 4/7 miles to the park from his house. The next day he ran 2 3/7 miles to the park from his school. Connor says the difference between the distance between the two runs is more than 1 mile. Do you agree or disagree with Connor? Explain using words and math.
3 4/7- 2 3/7= 1 1/7; I agree with Connor because 1 1/7 is greater than 1 whole.
