Answer:
16 miles
Step-by-step explanation:
Step 1: Make an expression
40% of what distance is 6.4 miles
x * (0.4) = 6.4
0.4x = 6.4
Step 2: Divide both sides by 0.4
0.4x / 0.4 = 6.4 / 0.4
x = 16
Answer: 16 miles
The % equation is p=%w
6.4 is the part
40 is the percent
the whole is x
6.4=.4x
Isolate x to get x=16
