last week Thomas ran 5 1/4 miles this week he plans to run half as far. how many miles does Thomas plan to run this week

Half Of  5 1/4 In Decimal Form Is 2.625  If You Want It In Fraction Form There is not much that can be done to figure out how to write 2.625 as a fraction, except to literally use what the decimal portion of your number, the .625, means. Since there are 3 digits in 625, the very last digit is the "1000th" decimal place. So we can just say that .625 is the same as 625/1000. Hope that helps
