Landon wants to ride his bicycle 36 miles this week. He has already
ridden 4 miles. If he rides for 4 more days, write and solve an
equation which can be used to determine m, the average number
of miles he would have to ride each day to meet his goal.
Equation:
Answer: m =

Since he has already ridden 4 miles already you can start by subtracting 4 from 36 (don't include in final answer though) 4 more days would mean he has 32 miles to complete in 4 days. An equation would be: m= 32/4 (read as 32 divided by 4)

Final:

m = 32/4

reason: he only has 4 days to do the remaining 32 miles, so he has to ride (average) 8 miles each day for the next 4 days.
