    Answer:

    m =6

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Given

    Total = 31

    Covered\ Distance = 13

    Days = 3

    Required

    Represent and solve the equation for the rate

    The scenario can be represented as:

    Total = Covered\ Distance + Days * rate

    Substitute the right values and represent rate as m

    31 = 13 + 3* m

    31 - 13 = 3* m

    18 = 3* m

    Divide both sides by 3

    6 = m

    m =6
