Answer:

64 miles

Explanation:

We are finding the distance Dave will travel on his drive.

We know that Bowtown to Cliffton is 20 miles;

Now, we have to figure out the distance from Cliffton to Aranville. We can imagine each rectangle as a different town that we have to drive through.

We first have to drive 20 miles (where we'll now be at Bowtown), and now find the distance between Bowtown and Aranville: 24 miles.

So, we can add up the total distances we know Dave will drive.

20 miles (Bowtown to Cliffton)

+ 44 miles [20 + 24]

________

64 miles

So, Dave will have to travel 64 miles from Bowtown to Cliffton and then from Cliffton to Aranville.
