Well to make it easier for you, you can turn the numbers into decimals soo....
25 7/8=25.875
32 1/2= 32.5
then after you do...
32.5-25.875=6.625
and if you what a fraction form here it is..
6 5/8
so when the water was 25 7/8in In 2 days it rained 6 5/8in which got the water to 32 1/5.
check:
25 7/8 +6 5/8=
25+6=31
7/8+5/8= 12/8 simplify it to 1 4/8
1 4/8 could also be 1 1/2
so then 31 + 1 1/2 = 32 1/2
