Answer:

32 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Elton hiked 16 miles each day on a 12 day hiking trip.

So, the number of miles hiked by Elton in 12 days will be:
16* 12=192 miles.

Lola hiked 14 miles each day on her 16 day hiking trip.

So, the number of miles hiked by Lola in 16 days will be:
14* 16=224 miles.

Let us subtract number of miles hiked by Elton from Number of miles hiked by Lola.


\text{Number of miles that Lola hiked more than Elton}=224-192


\text{Number of miles that Lola hiked more than Elton}=32

Therefore, Lola hiked 32 miles more than Elton in all.
