68 × 4 = 272 ; m =272
68÷4=17
; m=17
68 ÷ 4 = 17 ; m =17
68+4=72
; m=72
68 + 4 = 72 ; m =72
68−4=64
; m=64
68 - 4 = 64 ; m =64

To find out how many miles Alana rode, we can set up the equation based on the information given. If Zoe rode 68 miles and that is 4 times as many miles as Alana rode, we can express Alana's mileage, \( m \), as follows:
\[
68 = 4 \times m
\]
To solve for \( m \), we divide both sides by 4:
\[
m = \frac{68}{4}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
m = 17
\]
Thus, the correct sentence is:
**68 ÷ 4 = 17 ; m = 17**
\[
68 = 4 \times m
\]
To solve for \( m \), we divide both sides by 4:
\[
m = \frac{68}{4}
\]
Calculating this gives:
\[
m = 17
\]
Thus, the correct sentence is:
**68 ÷ 4 = 17 ; m = 17**
