document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Total distance traveled was  \"2%2A%287%2F8%29\" = \"14%2F8\" miles.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "We should determine, how many times  \"1%2F6\"  of a mile fits in  \"14%2F8\" miles.\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "For it, we divide  \"14%2F8\" : \"1%2F6\" = \"%28%2814%2F8%29%29%2F%28%281%2F6%29%29\" = \"%2814%2A6%29%2F8\" = \"84%2F8\" = 10\"4%2F8\" = 10\"1%2F2\".\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Thus,  we see that  1/6  of a mile fits  10  times into  14/8  miles  (and half of  1/6  mile remains).\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "\r\n" );
document.write( "Jamie makes pushup at the end of each  1/6  miles - hence, Jamie will stop 10 times.    ANSWER\r\n" );
