Step-by-step solution

Let's consider the number of kilometers Damian ran each day

On the second day it is written "round trip", that is, twice.

Therefore, we write the following exercise:

3.4+2×1.18+2.6= 3.4+2\times1.18+2.6=

We solve the multiplication exercise:

3.4+2.36+2.6= 3.4+2.36+2.6=

We arrange the exercise using the commutative property, to make it more convenient to solve:

3.4+2.6+2.36= 3.4+2.6+2.36=

We solve the exercise from left to right:

3.4+2.6=6 3.4+2.6=6

6+2.36=8.36 6+2.36=8.36

Final Answer

8.36
