Answer 1

She walk the rest 1/2 miles to the aquarium. Hope it help!

Answer 2

She walked
`(1)/(2)` miles from the bus stop to the aquarium

Explanation:

The total distance from Clara's hotel to the Aquarium is
`2 (1)/(2)` miles, this is the sum of all the distances that she have walked and traveled by bus:

Total distance = First Walk + Travel by bus + Second Walk

So for the Second Walk:

Second Walk = Total distance - First Walk + Travel by bus

`S = 2(1)/(2) -(1)/(4) -1(3)/(4) \\S = (5)/(2) -(1)/(4) -(7)/(4) \\S = (10-1-7)/(4)\\S = (2)/(4)\\S = (1)/(2)`
