Question 188183: I need the equation for: Gabriella needs to walk a total of 60 miles this month to meet her fitness goal. She walked 24 miles in the first 15 days of the month. How many miles does Gabriella need to walk on each of the last 16 days of the month to reach her goal? I need the equation and the answer. Thanks!! Answer by solver91311(24713) (Show Source):
If x is the number of miles she walks each of the remaining 16 days, then 16x is the number of miles she walks total for those 16 days, so that number plus the 24 miles she has already walked must equal 60 miles.
