Account for rate, time, and distances for the walking and the biking. Stay with units as miles or minutes.
__________________speed______________time_________distance
BIKE__________________________________________4+4=8
WALK_____________6/102=____102__________6
The total number of miles combined biking and walking is easily found from the given data: 8 miles biking and 6 miles walking. They were basically given. Their total combined is 8+6=14 miles.
The later described condition, "if you walk for 68 minutes" is in contradiction to the earlier given information; unless this was meant for making a prediction.
