Answer 1

I got 2.8. I got this answer by writing down and figuring out the numbers. I did 2.7 - 0.8 and got 1.9. Then i did 1.3 + 1.9 and got 3.2. To get Monday's and Friday's miles i did 3.2 plus 2.7 got the answer to that which was 5.9 then added 1.9 to it and got 7.8. Then i did 13.4 - 7.8 and got 5.6. Then i did 5.6 divided by 2 and got 2.8.
