Question

Last month dory biked 11 times as many miles as karly together they biked a total of 156 miles how many miles did dory bike last month

Answer 1

Answer:

143 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose Karly biked x miles.

Then Dory biked 11x miles.

x + 11x = 156 miles

12x = 156 miles

x = 156 ÷ 12 = 13

Karly biked 13 miles

Dory biked 13 x 11 = 143 miles

To check the answer 13 (Dory) + 143 (Karly) = 156 miles (Total)
