Answer: Keyshia rode 16/21 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance of Bay View Bike Path is 7/8 a mile.

Keyshia is riding her bike on Bay View Bike Path and Keyshia's bike got a flat tire 2/3 of the way down the path and she had to stop.

This means that the total distance that she rode before her bike got a flat tire would be

2/3 * 7/8 = 2/3 * 8/7 = 16/21 miles.

Converting 16/21 miles to decimal, it becomes 0.76 miles
