For this case we propose a system of equations:

x: Let the variable representing the number of miles Asanji ran

y: Let the variable representing the number of miles Kathryn ran

According to the statement data we have:


y-26.9 = x\\x = 11.1

Substituting the second equation into the first we have:


y-26.9 = 11.1\\y = 11.1 + 26.9\\y = 38

So, we have Karhryn ran 38 miles.

Answer:

Karhryn ran 38 miles.
