Question

Carl plans to prepare for the upcoming track season by running 160 miles. So far he has ran 28 miles. How many more miles does he have to run?

Answer 1

Answer:

132 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

miles ran + miles to run = total miles

28 + miles to run = 160

Subtract 28 from each side

28-28 + miles to run = 160-28

miles to run = 132

He still need to run 132 miles

Answer 2

Answer:

132 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

since he ran 28 miles but he has to run 160 miles, he still has to run some miles. if we make the amount he still has to run x, we can do 28+x=160. now we can solve this by subtracting 28 on both sides to getx=132

             28+x=160

             -28      -28

        -------------------------

            x=132
