How many miles long was the trail?

Answer :

Final answer:

To find the length of the trail, we add up the distances hiked on each day, which gives us a total of 78 miles.

Explanation:

To find the length of the trail, we need to analyze the given information step by step.

First, we know that Phoenix hiked a total of 26 miles on the first two days.

Next, we know that she averaged 12 miles per day on the second and third days. So, she hiked a total of 24 miles on those two days.

Finally, we know that she hiked a total of 28 miles on the last two days.

Adding up these distances, we have 26 miles + 24 miles + 28 miles = 78 miles.

Therefore, the trail Phoenix hiked is 78 miles long.
