Answer:

50 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

70% / 100% = 35 miles / out of total miles

So,

70/100 = 35/n

x n both sides

0.7n = 35

÷0.7

n = 50

(70/100 is the same as 0.7 - I made it that way so you could understand better & n is a variable - representing an unknown number or value)

Check:

35/50 x 100 = 70%

Hope this helps!
