Gemma has hiked a total of:

2 1/2 miles/hour × 3 hours = 7 1/2 miles

To find how far she is from the end of the trail, we can subtract the distance she has hiked from the total length of the trail:

11 3/8 miles - 7 1/2 miles = 3 7/8 miles

Therefore, Gemma is 3 7/8 miles from the end of the trail.
