    200 miles

    Step-by-step explanation:

    (Let m represent the number of miles)

    60 + 15 + 0.75m = 55 + 0.85m

    75 + 0.75m = 55 + 0.85m

    75 - 55 + 0.75m = 55 - 55 + 0.85m

    20 + 0.75m = 0.85m

    20 + 0.75m - 0.75m = 0.85m - 0.75m

    20 = 0.1m

    20/0.1 = 0.1m/0.1

    m = 200
