Annie is running a trail that is 4 1/2 miles long. She ran the first 2/3 of the distance. Then the trail became very steep, so she slowed down to a walk. Annie walked for 1/2 of the remaining distance and then ran again for the rest of the way. How far did Annie walk? Write the answer as a simplified fraction.

Annie walked 1 11/12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Trail= 4 1/2 miles

Annie ran the first 2/3 miles

Remaining miles= Total miles - Miles covered first

= 4 1/2 - 2/3

= 9/2 - 2/3

= 27-4 / 6

= 23/6 miles

Remaining miles = 23/6 miles

Annie walked for 1/2 of the remaining distance

1/2 of the remaining miles= 1/2 × 23/6

=23 / 12

= 1 11/12

Annie walked 1 11/12 miles
