40% = 40/100 = .4
\n" ); document.write( ".4(50) = 20 miles the first day
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( "50 - 20 = 30 miles remaining
\n" ); document.write( "...
\n" ); document.write( ".5(30) = 15 miles the second day

\n" ); document.write( "If 40% walked in the first day, then 60% remaining (100-40=60)
\n" ); document.write( ".60(50) = 30 left
\n" ); document.write( ".50(30) = 15 walked
\n" ); document.write( "30-15 = 15 remaining
