To find out how many miles Alana rode, we can start with the information that Oe rode 68 miles, which is 4 times as many miles as Alana rode. We can set up the equation as follows:

\[ 68 = 4 \times m \]

Now, we need to solve for \( m \) (the number of miles Alana rode):

  1. To isolate \( m \), we can divide both sides of the equation by 4: \[ m = \frac{68}{4} \]

  2. Now, let's perform the calculation: \[ m = 17 \]

Thus, Alana rode 17 miles.

Now we can fill in the blanks with the correct responses:

  1. First blank: "68 is 4"

  2. Second blank: "÷"

  3. Third blank: "="

  4. Fourth blank: "m"

  5. Fifth blank: "17"

So, the complete statements would look like this:

  • 68 is 4

  • ÷

  • =

  • m

  • m = 17

So Alana rode 17 miles.
