To train for a race, Scott wants to run 20 miles this week. He runs 1/4
of the miles on Monday.

If he runs 3 miles on Tuesday, how many miles will he still need to run to meet his goal?

Scott would still need to run 12 miles.

20 ÷ 4 = 5

5 + 3 = 8

20 - 8 = 12

Hope this helps! ^v^

Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

Goal = 20 miles

miles ran on Monday

= 1/4 of total goal

= 1/4 x 20

= 5 miles

Miles ran on tuesday = given as 3 miles

remaining miles to run

= total goal - miles ran on monday - miles ran on tuesday

= 20 - 5 - 3

= 20 - 8

= 12 miles left to run this week
