Question

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

Answer 1

Answer:

The number of miles Jill ran is the number of miles Sue ran (11) minus the number of miles Sue ran more than Jill (7).

So far, x=11-7.

Reorder the equation. Add 7 to both sides.

x + 7 = 11.

So, the correct equation is A.

Answer 2

A) x + 7 = 11

Jill runs x amount of miles and Sue runs x miles plus 7 miles.
