Jared ran 7 miles more than Jonathan last week. Jonathan ran 11 miles. Which equation will tell you how many miles Jared ran?

1 answer

The equation that will tell how many miles Jared ran is:

Jared's miles = Jonathan's miles + 7

If we substitute 11 for Jonathan's miles, the equation becomes:

Jared's miles = 11 + 7

Simplifying the equation, we get:

Jared's miles = 18
