Answer 1

If you think numbers with fractions are annoying, consider transforming the number into fractions!

Explanation:

7 1/2 is (14+1)/2, and 3 1/8 is (24+1)/3. Not you have 15/2 miles for 25/3 days and by dividing them you get 0.9 miles a day

Answer 2

2 2/5 per day I’m pretty sure ( 3 1/8 / 7 1/2)
