You don't have to use regexp to do this. Try this:

$var = str_replace('\\', '/', $var);

assuming $var contains the string you want to change.

2) change a string of:
numbers to digit/digit/digit


This you can du with chunk_split():

$var = chunk_split($var, 1, '/');

This puts a '/' between every character in $var AND in the end. So if you don't want the '/' in the end you can remove it with substr():

$var = substr($var, 0, -1);

Hope this is useful.
