Answer 1

48 miles

Explanation:

on wednesday elliot rode 3 times farther than he did monday and tuesday

so you add monday and tuesday together then multiply it by 3 and add that by 12

`6+6=12\\ \\12*3=36\\\\ 36+12=48`

Answer 2

48

Because 6 plus 6 is 12 and if he rode 3 times how much he rode on those days it would be 12 times 3 which is 36 than it's 36 plus 12 to get 48
