Hope this help!

Answer 2

Answer: 2w = 16

Explanation:

From the question, we are informed that Luis walked for 16 minutes while Natalie walked for w minutes and that Luis walked twice as long as Natalie.

The number of minutes that Natalie walk will be:

2 × w = 16

2w = 16

Solving further will be:

2w = 16

w = 16/2

w = 8

Natalie walked for 8 minutes
