Respuesta :

Answer:

32 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:  

We have been given that Elton hiked 16 miles each day on a 12 day hiking trip.

So, the number of miles hiked by Elton in 12 days will be: [tex]16\times 12=192[/tex] miles.

Lola hiked 14 miles each day on her 16 day hiking trip.

So, the number of miles hiked by Lola in 16 days will be: [tex]14\times 16=224[/tex] miles.  

Let us subtract number of miles hiked by Elton from Number of miles hiked by Lola.

[tex]\text{Number of miles that Lola hiked more than Elton}=224-192[/tex]

[tex]\text{Number of miles that Lola hiked more than Elton}=32[/tex]

Therefore, Lola hiked 32 miles more than Elton in all.
