Answer:

w

Explanation:

Monday = 4

Tuesday = 1/3 w (where w is the miles walked on Wednesday)

Wednesday = w

Total = 24

4 + 1/3 w + w = 24

Combine like terms

4 + 4/3 w = 24

Subtract 4 from each side

4/3 w = 20

Multiply each side by 3/4

w = 20 *3/4

w = 15

In the equation when we start, we need to put the variable, not the solution

At the end we have the solution
