Answer:

12 more feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Reason why is because if you add 14 and 4 you get 18 then you add 18 with 12 and you get 30. (hope this helps)

Well, with 30 being the total amount, first subtract how much the bug had crawled up the first and second time!
30 - 14= 16

So now, what is left is 16, but since it climbs more, subtract again:
16 - 4 = 12ft

The answer is 12ft to go!

Another way you can do this is add the distances the bug crawled up!
14 + 4= 18
30 - 18= 12

Either way works!
Answer: 12ft
Hope this helped you out!
