Gina traveled 450 miles to her grandmother's house in two days. She traveled 50 more miles on Saturday than on Sunday. How many miles did she travel on Saturday? on Sunday?
----------
Let distance traveled on Sunday be "x" miles
Then distance traveled on Saturday is "x+50"
----------------
EQUATION:
x + x+50 = 450 miles
2x = 400
x = 200 (distance traveled on Sunday)
x+50 = 250 (distance traveled on Saturday)
