April and Blake went running. Blake ran 4 miles farther than April. Added

together, they ran a total of 16 miles.

How far did April run?

X = April's distance

4 + x = Blake's distance

6 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given you can write the following equation:

x+y= 16 (1), where

x= April's distance

y= Blake's distance

You also have that Blake ran 4 miles farther than April which means that y= 4+x and you can replace this in the first equation and isolate x:

x+(4+x)= 16

x+4+x=16

2x=16-4

x=12/2

x= 6

According to this, the answer is that April ran 6 miles.
