Answer 1

Answer:

Jane has drive 390 miles to visit Grandma.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Number of miles Susie drive = 65 miles

Meg drives 2 times as far as Susie.

It means Number of miles Meg drive is equal to twice the number of miles driven my Susie.

Framing equation we get;

Number of miles Meg drive = 2 × Number of miles Susie drive = $65 \times 2=130\ miles$

Also Given:

Jane drives twice as far as Susie and Meg combined.

Number of Miles Driven by Jane is equal to twice the sum of Number of miles Susie drive and Number of miles Meg drive.

Framing equation we get;

Number of miles Meg drive = 2 × (Number of miles Susie drive + Number of miles Meg drive) = $2\times (65+130) = 2\times 195 = 390\ miles$

Hence Jane has drive 390 miles to visit Grandma.
