Since Natalie walked for w minutes
Since Luis walked twice as long as Natalie, then
Luis walked = 2 x w = 2w minutes
Since Luis walked for 16 minutes, then equate 2w by 16
The equation is
[tex]2w=16[/tex]
To solve it divide both sides by 2
[tex]\begin{gathered} \frac{2w}{2}=\frac{16}{2} \\ w=8 \end{gathered}[/tex]
The solution is 8
Natalie walked for 8 minutes
