To solve this problem, we need to calculate the distance Michelle walks in one day and then multiply it by 7 to find the distance she walks in one week.

Michelle walks 3 1/2 miles a day. To add the whole number and the fraction, we need to find a common denominator. The common denominator for 2 and 2 is 2. Therefore, 3 1/2 can be rewritten as 7/2.

To find the distance Michelle walks in one day, we need to multiply the distance per day by the number of days in a week: 7/2 * 7 = 49/2 = 24 1/2 miles.

Therefore, Michelle walks 24 1/2 miles in one week.

The correct answer is 24 1/2 miles (or Mathml image miles).
