    T = W - 8/3 ... 1

    T = 11/6 miles

    T = 1 5/6 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let T and W represent the number of miles Lita jogged on Tuesday and Wednesday respectively.

    From the question;

    Lita jogged 2 2/3 miles more on Wednesday than she did on Tuesday

    W = T + 2 2/3

    T = W - 2 2/3

    T = W - 8/3 ... 1

    She jogged 4 1/2 miles on Wednesday;

    W = 4 1/2

    W = 9/2

    Substituting the value of W into equation 1;

    T = 9/2 - 8/3

    T = 11/6 miles
