Answer: He hike [tex]7\dfrac{5}{8}\ miles[/tex] last month.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Length of first hike = [tex]2\dfrac{3}{4}\ miles=\dfrac{11}{4}\ miles[/tex]

Length of second hike = [tex]1\dfrac{1}{2}\ miles=\dfrac{3}{2}\ miles[/tex]

Length of third hike = [tex]3\dfrac{3}{8}\ miles=\dfrac{27}{8}\ miles[/tex]

Total miles he hike last month is given by

[tex]\dfrac{11}{4}+\dfrac{3}{2}+\dfrac{27}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{22+12+27}{8}\\\\=\dfrac{61}{8}\\\\=7\dfrac{5}{8}\ miles[/tex]

Hence, he hike [tex]7\dfrac{5}{8}\ miles[/tex] last month.
