Sorry for the late answer.

Basically, just work your way backwards. Equation form of the question:

x * 2/3 * 1/8 = $40

where x is the amount earned before taxes. Therefore, after rearranging some stuff, we get:

x = $40 * 8 * 1.5
and thus
x = $320 * 1.5
x = $480

lozanna [386]

Answer:

65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Number of days already walked = 7 days

Equation:

5 × 7 + k = 100

Solving:

⇒ 5 × 7 + k = 100

⇒ 35 + k = 100

⇒ k = 100 - 35

⇒ k = 65
