Answer:

Becky ran farther by 560 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Keith's treadmill said he had run 10,000 feet


K=10,000\text{ ft}

Becky's treadmill said she had run two miles;


B=2\text{ miles}

converting miles to feet;


1\text{ mile = 5280 ft}

So;


\begin{gathered} B=2\text{ miles =2(5280) ft} \\ B=10,560\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

From the derived values, since B is greater than K, then Becky ran farther than Keith.

And by;


\begin{gathered} B-K=10,560-10,000 \\ =560\text{ ft} \end{gathered}

Therefore, Becky ran farther by 560 ft
