For order you to solve that all you half to do is subtract 6.75 from 15.2.

Answer:

Jin ran 8.45 miles on Saturday.

Explanation:

We know that Jin ran 15.2 miles over the weekend. We can turn this into an equation :


15.2(miles)=Saturday+Sunday

Being Saturday the total miles he ran on Saturday and Sunday the total miles he ran on Sunday.

Given that he ran 6.75 miles on Saturday (It's a data from the exercise) we can replace this in the equation :


15.2(miles)=6.75(miles)+Sunday

Solving the equation :


15.2(miles)=6.75(miles)+Sunday


Sunday=15.2(miles)-6.75(miles)=8.45(miles)

We find that Jin ran 8.45 miles on Sunday
