Solution

Step 1: First, we need to calculate the total number of blocks Allie traveled to get to the library. She walked 3 blocks to the bus stop and then rode the bus for 5 blocks. So, 3 (blocks walked) + 5 (blocks on the bus) = 8 blocks to the library.

Step 2: Allie came home the same way, which means she traveled the same number of blocks back home. So, she traveled another 8 blocks.

Step 3: To find the total number of blocks Allie traveled, we add the blocks she traveled to the library and the blocks she traveled to get back home. So, 8 (blocks to the library) + 8 (blocks back home) = 16 blocks.

So, Allie traveled a total of 16 blocks.
