Answer:
Mira = 95 miles
Explanation:
Given
John walked 50 miles than Mira
The total miles walked is 290
To find
If John walked 50 miles more than Mira and the total miles walked including Mira is 290, then divide 290 by both of them. Once that is done, don't evenly distribute the miles to them. Because remember, John walked 50 miles more than Mira. So we just distribute this with John having 50 miles more. By subtracting 50 from Mira's share and give it to John
Solve
290 ÷ 2 = 145
- Subtract 50 from Mira's share and give it to John
Mira's 145 - 50 = 95
- Add that 50 to John's 145
John's 145 + 50 = 195
Therefore, John ran 195 miles and Mira ran 95 miles.
