    Answer:Nathan tide 2 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let x represent the number of miles that Nathan rode.

    Let y represent the number of miles that Miguel rode his bicycle.

    Miguel rode his bicycle 4 miles less than 5 times the number of miles that Nathan rode. This means that

    y = 5x - 4

    If Miguel rode his bicycle 6 miles, then y = 6

    Therefore, the number of miles that Nathan rode his bicycle would be

    6 = 5x - 4

    5x = 6 + 4 = 10

    x = 10/5 = 2 miles
