2d=570
2 d is equal to 570

d+255=570
d plus 255 is equal to 570

d−255=570
d minus 255 is equal to 570

d−570=255

d minus 570 is equal to 255

The equation that could be used to solve this problem is:

d + 255 = 570

Explanation:
Since Mark traveled 255 miles, the distance David traveled can be represented by 'd'. The equation d + 255 = 570 represents the total distance traveled by both Mark and David.

To solve this problem, we can use the equation d + 255 = 570, where d represents the distance that David traveled. By subtracting 255 from both sides of the equation, we can isolate d and find out how far David traveled.
