Answer 1

The answer is D. I am assuming you meant .38 miles instead of 38.

Answer 2

0.525 mile

Explanation:

The post office is 0.15 mile from Abdul’s house. His school is 0.38 mile from the post office.

Abdul stops at post office on his way to school,

distance traveled from his house to post office = 0.15 miles

distance traveled from his post office to school = 0.38 miles miles

Total distance traveled =
`0.15+0.38= 0.53` miles

0.53 mile is close to 0.525 miles
