Answer:

68+m=185

m=117

Step-by-step explanation:

68 miles before lunch, plus m miles after lunch is a total of 185 miles. Assuming she reaches her destination. That creates the equation 68+m=185

Then, to figure out the miles she travels after lunch we solve for m:

do this by subtracting 68 from both sides. This leaves us with: m=117
