Answer:

15

Explanation:

2 x 1 and 7/8 = 3 and 6/8 miles

= 3.75 miles

Since there are park benches every 1/4 mile on the trail, we can find the number of benches by dividing the total length of the trail by the distance between the benches:

Number of benches = (3.75 miles) / (1/4 mile per bench)

Number of benches = 15
