Aisha wants to ride her bicycle 18.2 miles this week. She has already ridden 5 miles. If she rides for 4 more days, write and solve an equation which can be used to determine mm, the average number of miles she would have to ride each day to meet her goal.
To determine the average number of miles Aisha would have to ride each day to meet her goal, we need to find the total miles she still needs to ride and divide it by the number of days remaining.
The total miles Aisha needs to ride in order to meet her goal is 18.2 miles - 5 miles = 13.2 miles.
The number of days remaining is 4 days.
Let's say mm represents the average number of miles Aisha would have to ride each day to meet her goal.
Then we can write the equation: mm * 4 = 13.2
To solve for mm, we divide both sides of the equation by 4:
mm = 13.2 / 4 = 3.3
Therefore, the average number of miles Aisha would have to ride each day to meet her goal is 3.3 miles.
