Answer:

Explanation:

You turn 5 3/5 into an improper fraction, to do that you do 5 x 5 = 25 then 25 + 3 = 28/5

so in a 7 day period she swims 5.6 kilometers. So you have to do 5.6/7 = 0.8

So it would be 0.8 kilometers in a day which is 4/5 kilometers so I don't know if the answers were just wrong?
