The trail is 3424 miles long. It begins in city A and ends in city B. Manfred has hiked \(\frac{3}{8}\) of that. How many miles has he hiked?

All we need to do is to find out how much is 3/8 of 3424. We can do it in at least two ways:

Divide 3424 by 8 and then multiply the result by 3
Just multiply 3424 by 3/8

So:
3424 / 8 = 428 428 * 3 = 1284
or:
3424 * 3/8 = = 428 * 3/1 = = 428 * 3 = = 1284
Answer: Manfred hiked 1284 miles .

Since he has hiked 3/8 of it.
= 3/8 * 3424 = 3 * 428 = 1284
= 1284 miles.

Manfred has hiked 1284 miles out of a 3424-mile trail. This was calculated by finding \( \frac{3}{8} \) of 3424, which involves first calculating \( \frac{1}{8} \) of the distance, and then multiplying by 3. Therefore, the total distance hiked is 1284 miles.
