Clarification was needed. The travel agency that booked Noah's trip wasn't sure EXACTLY how long it would rain.

It could have been 40 days, 41 nights.
Like those vacation packages 6 days, 7 nights.

Not really. I think it is just telling us that it rained continuously for 40 days and nights. In other words, the rain did not stop during that time.

No.
During Ramadan, people fast during the day but eat at night.
You could do different things during the day and night.

Yes. But it's only implied. Anyone who reads it literally would be confused.

Technically, day and night are seperate.
1 day does not = 1 night

No.
The Muslims, for example, fast and pray, etc. only during the day of their "holy" months.
In the evenings they can do whatever they want.
