They rode

__________miles before replacing each horse.

Answer 1

14 miles

Explanation:

182/13 = 14 miles

Assuming each horse was only ridden once

then a total of 16 horses were ridden for a total of 182 miles

182 miles /13 horses = 14 miles horse

Of course, if each horse was ridden more than once before being replaced the distance between replacements could be reduced.

Note that the fact that there were 3 riders is irrelevant.

Answer 2

14 miles

Explanation:

You divide. 132/13

Which gives you 14. Every 14 miles, the riders replaced a horse.

So, They rode 14 miles before replacing each horse.

Hope this helps:)
