Answer 2

In 5 days, you drive 18.5 miles to and from school.

Explanation:

The question tells us that your round-trip drive to school is 3 7/10 miles, wich means that your round-trip drive to school is 3.7 miles, because

`3+(7)/(10)=(37)/(10)=3.7`

Now, we just have to multiply 3.7 miles per round-trip drive, times 5 days of round-trip drive to and from school, and

`3.7*5=(37)/(2)=18.5`

This means that in 5 days, you drive 18.5 miles to and from school.
