Question

Sandra rode her bike 54 miles in one day. She rode 6 times the

number of miles Caleb rode his bike. How many miles did Caleb ride
his bike? Let b represent the number of miles Caleb rode his bike.
Ab 54 - 6
B 546 = 6
C 6 = 54

Answer 1

54 = 6b

Explanation:

Sandra rode her bike 54 miles in one day.

She rode 6 times the number of miles Caleb rode his bike.

Let Caleb rode b miles. It means,

54 = 6b

We can also find b as follows :

b = (54/6)

b = 9 miles

Hence, the required equation is "54 = 6b".
