Answer:

12.65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

he runs on a track that is 2 1/2 miles per lap and he runs 3 1/2 laps:

2 1/2 *3 1/2= 5/2 * 7/2=35/4=8.75 miles

afternoon he runs on a track that is 1 3/10 miles per lap and he runs 3 laps

1 3/10 *3=13/10*3=39/10= 3.9

total miles  he runs in a day: 8.75+3.9= 12.65 miles
