No scale was specified. However, if the Earth was one inch, the Andromeda Galaxy would be 29,300,000,000 miles away.
That would be an immense number. Light, itself, takes about 2.54 million years to go from Andromeda to Earth. (Or vice-versa).The number of kilometers is about 23 quintillion.
No. The dimensions of the Andromeda Galaxy are about 190 minutes x 60 minutes (3 degrees+10 minutes x 1 degree) , which is far larger than the Moon's apparent size of 30 minutes (1/2 degree)
The Andromeda Galaxy is about 2.5 million light years away. How long it would take to get their depends on how fast you go, but at the speed of light it would take 2.5 millions years.
There is some blueshift in the Andromeda galaxy as it is moving toward us. The speed of the Andromeda Galaxy relative to the sun is about 300 kilometers per second or about 0.1% the speed of light. The blueshift would be detectable by instruments but not to the human eye.

They would get a prize and a recommendation for the first person to do it.

Not as far as anyone knows, and it's really very unlikely. Traveling at the speed of light ... which is impossible for people ... it would take millions of years ... which is longer than people have existed ... to reach the Andromeda Galaxy. So it's probably a safe bet that earth people have never been there.

It's impossible to be precise, but I would guess all of them. The galaxy is so large.

small one would do
The Andromeda Galaxy is 12,904,531,200,000,000,000 miles away and the space shuttle orbits at 18,000 mph so to travel to the Andromeda Galaxy in the space shuttle would take 81.8 billion years which is around 18 times the currrent age of the universe!!!
The Andromeda Galaxy can be seen from the northern hemisphere. Above the 45th parallel it is circumpolar, meaning you can see it pretty much any time of the night. If you know where Cassiopeia is, the Andromeda Galaxy is a fuzzy patch of light visible to the naked eye (on really dark nights) between that asterism (the Flying W) and the constellation of Andromeda. The five bright stars that make up Cassiopeia--Andromeda is below the W. The rim stars are dim, even through a good 14" telescope you can generally only make out the core stars. Otherwise the galaxy would appear a bit larger than our own moon, from our perspective here on earth. Andromeda is 2.5 million light years away, and a bit bigger than our galaxy.
Three galaxies would be the Milky Way, Andromeda, and Comet Galaxy.
