Answer:

2m - 3

Explanation:

Distance ran by Jim = m

Twice as far as Jim : 2 * m = 2m

3 miles fewer than '2m' = 2m - 3

Distance ran by Kelly = 2m - 3

Answer:

2m - 3

Explanation:

We know that Jim ran m miles. Twice that amount is simply 2 times that, or 2 * m which simplifies to 2m. 3 miles fewer means that we have to subtract 3 from that quantity, so the answer is 2m - 3.
