One can add the integers 350+346+134+327+413=1570
Then add the fractions 3/5 (0.6), 3/10 (0.3), 1/5 (0.2), 45 (0.8), and 7/10 (0.7) to get 2.6
The total distance is 1572.6 miles.
When adding mixed numbers, consider adding the integers first then adding the fractions. It is often easier than making each an improper fraction.
