Julia ran 37.7 miles less than Stefan last week. julia ran 5.5 miles. How many miles did Stefan run?

In the given question it is given that Julia had run 37.7 miles less than Stefan. It is also given that Julia had run a distance of 5.5 miles.

Let us assume that Stefan had run a distance = x

Then Julia ran for a distance = (x - 37.7) miles

Now we get the equation to solve the distance ran by Stefan

x - 37.7 = 5.5

x = 5.5 + 37.7

= 43.2

So Stefan ran for a distance of 43.2 miles.

37.7+5.5 = 43.2 miles. Feel free to correct.
