Question

Drove 360 miles which is 136 miles less than twice the distance Matt drove. Write an equation showing how many miles, d, Matt drove.

Answer 1

Since it said 136 less that twice the distance you would multiply 360 by 2 which is 720 and since it says 136 less, you would do the opposite and add so Matt drive 1080 miles. 360d x2 +136 = total d or Td
