No reason, or no evidence to support your claim/proof
On the computer? You write mixed fractions like: 1 2/4
Obviously, 1 2/4 is an example.
Answer:
19.9 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
In this problem we have:
is the distance travelled during the 1st day
is the distance travelled during the 2nd day
is the distance travelled during the 3rd day
is the distance travelled during the 4th day
We notice that the difference between the distance travelled on the (n+1)-th day and the distance travelled on the n-th day doubles every day. In fact:

Which can be rewritten using the general formula:

This means that

By applying this formula recursively, we can find the 7th term, which is the distance travelled on the 7th day:

So, the distance travelled on the 7th day is 19.9 miles.
Both 17/10 and 2 4/5 should be rounded up in preparation for this estimation.
17/10 is close to 2 and 2 4/5 is close to 3. Thus, your estimated answer should be
2/3, or approx. 0.6666....
Exact answer: divide 17/10 by 14/5. LCD is 10, so convert 14/5 to 28/10.
Now divide 17/10 by 28/10. Answer: 17/28 = approx. = 0.607 approx.
These two results are comparable: 0.6666.... and 0.6071 ....
