Question

Brooke decided to ride her bike from her home to visit her friend Adam. Two miles away from home, her bike got a flat tire and she had to walk the remaining four miles to Adam's home. She could repair the tire and had to walk all the way back home. How many more miles did Brooke walk than she rode.

Answer 1

Answer:

8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm going to assume the question said that she "couldn't" repair the tire and was forced to walk back home, that makes more sense.

With that in mind:

She rode her bike 2 miles.

She walked 4 miles on the way there, and 6 miles on the way back.

You can deduce that it was a 6 mile walk back because of the 2 mile bike ride, then the 4 mile walk that it took to get there.

All in all that rounds out to 10 mile walking, and 2 mile biking. That is 8 miles more walking than biking.
