As it is given that the distance between San Antonio and Houston is 190 miles. Nicholas and Rose each drove 2/5 of the total distance. Therefore, we can write
[tex]\text{Distance covered by Nicholas}=\dfrac{2}{5}\ \text{of theTotal Distance}[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{2}{5} \times 190\\\\= 76\rm\ miles[/tex]
[tex]\text{Distance covered by Rose}=\dfrac{2}{5}\ \text{of theTotal Distance}[/tex]
[tex]= \dfrac{2}{5} \times 190\\\\= 76\rm\ miles[/tex]
Total Distance = Distance covered by Nicholas + Distance covered by Rose + Distance covered by Charlie
190 miles = 76 miles +76 miles + Distance covered by Charlie
Distance covered by Charlie = 38 miles
Hence, the distance covered by Charlie is 38 miles.
