The average number of miles that would be ridden to meet his goal is 7.2 miles.
Total distance = 52 miles
Distance ridden = 16 miles
Number of days left = 5 days
Let the number of miles that'll be ridden for each day be represented by x.
Therefore, the equation to solve the question will be:
5(x) + 16 = 52
5x + 16 = 52
5x = 52 - 16
5x = 36
x = 36/5
x = 7.2
Therefore, he'll have to ride 7.2 miles per day.
