    26miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    Let Nina's husband's (Ed) mileage = x miles

    Nina = (x + 6) miles

    Combined mileage = 46

    Nina's miles + Ed's miles = 46

    x + (x+6) = 46

    x+x+6 = 46

    2x + 6 = 46

    2x = 46-6

    2x = 40

    x = 40/2 = 20miles

    Nina's husband covered 20miles

    Nina covered = x+6 = 20+6 = 26miles

    Nina walked 26miles
