Answer 6

\[\large \text{Total Distance} = (\text{miles jogged per day})*(\text{number of days})\]

Divide both sides by "miles jogged per day" to get


\[\large \text{Total Distance} = (\text{miles jogged per day})*(\text{number of days})\]

\[\large \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{miles jogged per day}} = \frac{(\text{miles jogged per day})*(\text{number of days})}{\text{miles jogged per day}}\]

\[\large \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{miles jogged per day}} = \text{number of days}\]

\[\large \text{number of days} = \frac{\text{Total Distance}}{\text{miles jogged per day}}\]
